MY ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Today's reading: Ecclesiastes 1-2

"But as I looked around at everything I had worked so hard to accomplish, it was all meaningless. It was like chasing the wind. There was nothing really worthwhile anywhere." Ecclesiastes 2:11 NLT

It takes me only a small percentage of time, in comparison to Solomon, to look over all I've accomplished. What I have built, what I have succeeded in, what I have because of my hard work is minute.

What I do see that I have done, is like he said, meaningless. Feeble. Poorly done, but done none the less.

But when I look at all God's done? When I stop long enough to count all the blessings, happenings, sins forgiven and opportunities He has allowed into my life--I am amazed!

Any good that has come from my hands, any of my words penned that touched a heart, any healing offered or advice given on my behalf, well, they're really from Him and He's allowing me to be a part of it!

No, nothing I've done is worth much, especially in comparison to all He's done and is doing.
