The Book of Ecclesiastes Offers Us the Meaning of Life

The most important thing to know about time, is that it ends!

It runs out for everyone and everything. It’s not infinite. It is measured. Time comes to an end. This is a fact of our faith. Time indeed comes to an end.

Our first reading makes this point to us! When we are young, the possibilities seem endless. The reading tells us about the young man who is encouraged to feel and live life with energy. Step out into the river of time. But before you do, he is told: Think On The Lord! What an interesting statement.

On one hand he is told to go and live his life. On the other hand, he is told you will not know what you are doing, until you turn to the Lord. The first reading gives us all an amazing advice on how to live our life when we are young . . . and when we are not so young. Hear more within the Homily!

The Meaning of Life

Further in the Homily, we are challenged with a question. All of the effort, all of the work, all our enjoying and all of our suffering, what good is it if it all comes to an end? What real value does anything really have if it comes to an end?  The Book of Ecclesiastes offers the Meaning of Life.  Hear more on this in the Homily!
