There is a futile emptiness of trying to find meaning and satisfaction “under the sun.” But when we fear the One who is above the sun, our futility is transformed into a living hope.
Our perspective—whether temporal or eternal—will determine our standards and the source of our hope, and our practice will reveal what that perspective truly is.
The wisdom psalms teach us to treat things according to their true value. They give us perspective to see what is temporal and what is eternal, enabling us to live in light of that reality.
The greatness of God is on marvelous display in the universe. We need only take a closer look at everything around us in order to see it and glorify Him for the gratuitous beauty He has put into creation.
How can we honor God in our relationships, particularly in the family and in our jobs? He calls us to live out of our identity in Him, loving others and treating them with respect.
