Facing Adversity (Ecclesiastes 6:10-7:14)

As we look back on 2019 and 2020, can we say (or sing) with confidence "This is the day that the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it"? Some days that's easy, other days it's difficult. As we transition to the second half of Ecclesiastes, Qohelet points us to the fact that all our days, good and bad, are in the hand of God. He is sovereign in and over our lives. We don't know where our story is leading or the legacy we will leave behind. We don't know what tomorrow brings, but God does - and we need to consider that carefully.
