"Stewarding God's Gifts"
Ecclesiastes 5:8-6:10
In Ecclesiastes 5:8–6:10, Solomon reminds us that life, labor, and every good gift we enjoy come from God and are to be received with humility rather than controlled or hoarded in self-interest. This passage calls us to steward God’s gifts wisely—living responsibly before Him, holding His blessings loosely, and learning to enjoy them with gratitude under His sovereign hand.
