I felt very puzzled every time I read the Book of Ecclesiastes; it says: “I sought in my heart to give myself to wine, yet acquainting my heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do...
Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Truly my soul waits on God: from him comes my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
When men are cast down, then you shall say, There is lifting up; and He shall save the humble person.
