Today's Topic: Before The Golden Bowl Breaks
Today's Text: Eccl 12: 1-10
Mermory Verse: Eccl 12:1 New International Version.

Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say, "I find no pleasure in them"

Many people especially the youth enjoys quoting verse one of chapter 12 in the book of Ecclesiastes, but hardly do they know what the other verses says.

This message is not just for the youth, rather verse one is just an idiom.

The writer of the book of Ecclesiastes liken our being alive to the life of a young person who is full of energy and enthusiaism.

My dear, regardless of your age, as much as you are alive and healthy, please devote your life to things that belong to God.

Listen to Jesus in John 9:4. Why do you feel like you are too young to start working for God, or are you one of those that says "it is too early to bear the cross of Christ."

I want to tell you clearly today that delay can be dangerous. Eccelesiastes 9:10 warns you.

Also, your body is the golden bowl, as it will be broken sooner or later, because time is coming when you will become useless, when your energy would fail you and when you will desire but there would be no strength.

Kindly note that it might not be death alone, but other unforeseen circumstances of life.

I beg of you, live wisely onto God.

Until you read from me next week, stay blessed in the Lord. Evangelist Oloyede Raphael.
