Many years ago there lived a man who longed to fill the emptiness that life seemed to produce in his soul. Having been raised by parents who were undeniably the upper crust of his world’s social strata, he considered himself quite fortunate, and used his advantage to accumulate great wealth.
With a determination that money was no object, he set out to discover the secrets that would quiet his troubled soul. He buried himself in his work in hope of great gain, in pursuit of wisdom he engaged in every academic discipline known to man, he collected everything his heart desired, indulged himself in the pleasures of wine and women, built himself houses and gardens, surrounded himself with servants, amassed flocks and herds, etc.
This searching man was none other than wise King Solomon, who, at the end of his search had to confess, Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 2:11). But all was not loss; his experiment had revealed this divine truth …Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. (Ecclesiastes 12:13).
