24 There is nothing
better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his
toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God, 25 for apart from him who can
eat or who can have enjoyment?
Greed and pride and
selfishness can acquire the world's delicacies, but only God can grant the
partaker with satisfaction at their consumption. Some gain access to everything
their heart desires and yet the fulfillment they sought in obtaining them is
withheld. Often the saddest sacks are those who have tasted everything and
found it wanting because they've refused to taste and see that the Lord, alone,
is good.
