There are substantial gaps between the enjoyment God desires for us and our experiences of that enjoyment, but God has provided a bridge to span these gaps if we will…

Pursuing the wise life may result in temporal benefits but will not secure any lasting good; so live wisely but turn to Christ.

The pursuit of the good life will only leave you empty, exasperated, and exhausted; so pursue Christ instead, in whom alone are all the treasures of true wisdom.

God has afflicted mankind with the griefs of life to turn our hearts back to Him in humility by upending our illusion that human endeavor can overcome the curse.

Considered apart from the LORD, all things are wearisome and frustrating and have no lasting remembrance; but God promises justice and joy to all who fear and love Him.
