The Reality of Life, Ecclesiastes 3:16-4:3 (5:8-9)

When the toddler is sent to bed earlier than her older siblings she may well exclaim “It’s not fair!” Even from our youth, we have a sense of justice, a sense of the way things are supposed to be. As we grow older, we recognize that justice is not always served. The Preacher wrestles with this question, and while he hopes for justice in the end, he resigns himself to this fallen world and its need for a righteous judge. 1. This world is a brutal & callous place (Ecc. 3:16 & 4:1)2. God will judge everbody (v. 17)3. We should be ready (vs. 18-21)4. Live confidently (v. 22)Songs:He Lives #7133098 by A Skinner, C McClarney, & J SmithCapitol CMG Genesis, Tiny Hits, Be Essential Songs, Cashagamble Jet Music Overcome #7067561 by C Brown, M Brock & S Furtick© Music by Elevation Worship PublishingJesus Paid It All #4689508 by J T Grape, E M Hall & A Nifong2006 worshiptogether.com songs and sixsteps Music--------------------------------------------Love Well Change Lives Through ChristIt’s the vision of Woodmen, led by Pastor Josh Lindstrom, in the Pikes Peak area of ColoradoFind more at https://woodmenvalley.org or download the Woodmen app at https://subsplash.com/woodmenvalleychapel/app —Connect with UsWebsite:https://woodmenvalley.org Woodmen Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/woodmen_valley_chapel/Woodmen Twitter:https://twitter.com/Welcome2WoodmenWoodmen Facebook Pages:Central https://www.facebook.com/WoodmenValleyChapel Heights https://www.facebook.com/WoodmenHeights Monument https://www.facebook.com/WoodmenMoument Rockrimmon https://www.facebook.com/WoodmenRockrimmonSouthwest https://www.facebook.com/WoodmenSouthwest
