ECCLESIASTES: LOSING YOUR ILLUSIONS

Ecclesiastes 5:1-7

“I was astonished that although I now loved you… I did not persist in enjoyment of my God.  Your beauty drew me to you, but soon I was dragged away from you by my own weight and in dismay I plunged again into the things of this world – as though I had senses the fragrance of the fare but was not yet able to eat it.”

- St. Augustine

Reflection Points

• What stood out to you this morning?  What hit home?
• Is your definition of worship holistic or event based?
• How can you ‘guard your steps’?
• Have you cultivated the taste for ‘listening’?
• Are there vows that you have made and not kept?  How should you respond?
