Meaningless

That was one of the first words that hit me in the new book of the Bible I started reading today. Prior to today, I read a Psalm a day. Yes, I even did 119 in one day. I think I combined 117 and 118 in one day. Anyway, Wednesday was when I read 150, so I needed to start a new book. Ecclesiastes jumped out and said READ ME!! I think the first chapter sums up where I should be. So much in life is meaningless. All the small stuff I worry about. All the things in this world that set me off. It's all meaningless. God? There is meaning!! I long for God's meaning and purpose in my life. I may not receive the incredible wisdom that Solomon prayed for but I do pray that I would receive just an ounce of it. Thank You Lord for this new day! I feel more excited about this new day than I have in a little while. This day is Yours. Everything I have within it I surrender to You. Thank You Lord!
