With Christ, we have more than life under the sun. We have life in the Son – abundant life, eternal life.

This thought is taken from

Ecclesiastes 1:1-2:26

Without Christ. life is empty. With Him, everything changes. He fills our life with God’s blessing. With Him, we have more than life “under the sun.” We have life “in the Son” – abundant life, eternal life (1:3,14; 2:11,17; John 10:10; 1 John 5:11-12). Which life do you want? You can settle for life “under the sun.” Many people do. They never think about the meaning of life. They never ask , “What is the purpose of my life?” There is another life, a better life, a life with meaning, purpose and direction. You can come to Christ and receive life “in the Son.” This is life “from above.” This is our “foretaste of glory divine”: “Angels descending bring from above echoes of mercy, whispers of love” “Looking above”, we are “filled with His goodness” and saved by “His love.” In our “Saviour”, we are “happy and blest” (Mission Praise, 59).
