Day 226 - Balance

"So I reflected on all this and concluded that the righteous and the wise and what they do are in God's hands, but no one knows whether love or hate awaits them.


All share a common destiny —the righteous and the wicked, the good and the bad, the clean and the unclean, those who offer sacrifices and those who do not. As it is with the good, so with the sinful; as it is with those who take oaths, so with those who are afraid to take them. "

Ecclesiastes 9:1-2
 
 
We must find a balance between good and bad. Another part of Ecclesiastes book tells us how we will never be 100% good as we are all sinners and we will never be 100% wicked, as there is God's mercy and grace in all of us. It also says that if we think we are too good, we are wrong, and if we think we are too bad, it is also wrong. Wise people are just in between. In need of God's mercy just like everyone else.
 
He works so marvelously in everyone's life. He made de moon and the sun so we can have day and night. That's wonderful and it also sets us time in life. The day and night are to set up a time frame whithin we must work with, giving us an end to all we do, telling us "hurry up, there is only so much time to fullfil our purpose".
