I was in church a few weeks ago, and the speaker, Josh Peigh referenced Ecclesiastes, which is my favorite book in the Bible. (Am I supposed to have a favorite?)
The idea that Solomon could be so cynical warms my heart. I very much enjoy reading that the wisest soul deemed most pursuits “spitting into the wind”, and that honestly, there is nothing new under the sun. This is generally my mood on any given day.
During the same sermon, he spoke about our daily monotony – specifically, inviting the Creator of the Universe, the all-knowing, all-seeing God into my own personal monotony. Pure genius, I thought when I heard those words – my own personal monotony. That’s what I live out every day, and need to constantly remind myself that God would desire to be part of it – my own personal monotony. Not new, certainly, but a continual relevation to a cynical soul.
There you go.
