Satisfied?
Aug 17, 2025 • Pastor David Anglin
Is there ever a time when you are satisfied? You are content with your food, family, and fame. It is not uncommon for people to accomplish or acquire things they have long desired, only to be disappointed and dissatisfied. In Ecclesiastes 6, we hear of a man who gains great riches but is unable to enjoy them.
The hymn writer, William Cowper ("There is a Fountain") wrote a poem called The Task, in which he described the futility of life as, "The toil of dropping buckets into empty wells, and growing old in drawing nothing up."
What well have you been dropping your bucket in? Ecclesiastes 6 gives us some helpful insights on picking our wells so our buckets don't come up empty.
