Solomon's Wisdom invites us to question our Labor, toil, and striving. What is all our "getting" us? Eccles. 2:22-24 says: "Getting" is getting us pain, grief and no sleep. A meaningless chase that leads nowhere with nothing. Getting is ghetto Solomon concludes.
The Alternative... nothing is better than to eat, drink, and find satisfaction on our Labor. This is a gift from the very hand of God. Labor Day is a good opportunity to examine what is our hand toiling for. Am I reaching to get stuff or my reaching for the enjoyment that comes only from the hand of God?
Also, check out these Scriptures for your Meaningful Labor Day. Isa. 55:1-2, Matt. 11:25-30
