Time and Toil: Freedom in the Fog | Ecclesiastes 3:1-15 | Sam Jones

Feeling stuck in a season you cannot escape—whether in work, marriage, parenting, or the constant rat race? This message from Ecclesiastes 3:1–15 explores how time and toil expose our limits and our longing for eternity, not to crush us but to free us. Instead of using our schedules, careers, and relationships as tools to secure happiness or control outcomes, we learn to receive them as gifts from an eternal God who is writing a far bigger story than we can see, and to rest in Jesus who entered our hevel—our fog and vapor—to redeem our restless striving and teach us to find joy in ordinary, everyday life.
