“There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God, for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment?”
Ecclesiastes 2:24-25 ESV
This has always been one of my favorite books of wisdom. It seems a bit depressing, but it also helps to reframe what is important and what things to ignore. Love God, serve Him, take pleasure in whatever He provides and hold all things loosely. In other words, set the bar of your life expectations low and seek to please God…any joy you experience is a bonus!
