The Crook In Our Lot

Ecclesiastes 11:1-6; 7:13-14 There is a tension that runs through Ecclesiastes between what we can know versus what we cannot know. We know that God is in control of all our days. Yet also know that there is a lot we don’t know like why and how God allows certain things to happen in our lives. When our God-controlled days are touched by brokenness this tension is amplified because the wise understand that God is equally sovereign over all our days—good and bad. So how can we handle this tension? That’s what the Preachers guides us to see in our verses today. Main Idea—When my lot in life doesn’t make sense, consider the work of God. This is where the fear of the LORD leads us.
