Well, good morning to everybody. Mike Barry here, one of the pastors at Cornerstone. This is our 2nd lesson on our series Living Life Backwards, and, looking forward to our time. Together.
I was blowing some bubbles a little bit earlier as part of the illustration of what we're gonna be talking about this morning. The chapter we'll be covering is called Bursting the Bubble. We'll be looking at part of chapter 1 and chapter 2 in Ecclesiastes. This will be chapter 2 in our book, Living Life Backwards by David Gibson.
let's go ahead and pray and then we'll jump into our, our time together. Lord, we thank you so much for this time that we can look at your word. We ask God that you'd be with us and our children as they also study the word of God. And Lord, that You would help us to understand what it means.
That man does not gain. From his toil under the sun. But everything is a gift from the hand of God. Help us this morning by your grace to see that there is no gain, but there is a gift....
