THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS: Finding Meaning and Joy (Eccl. 1:8-11)
Solomon grappled with the futility and meaninglessness of life apart from God. In Eccl 1:12-2:11, he recounts his attempts to find happiness and fulfillment by following the well worn paths that people often try, but discovered what people always discover, that none of it will fill an empty life. In the end, He concludes that true joy and meaning can only be found in relationship with God.
