Ecclesiastes 3:13

"moreover, that every man who eats and drinks sees good in all his labor-it is the gift of God."

This is an expression in the book which takes us "above the sun". For the believer, making the most of each moment isn't an escape from reality or the inevitable. Rather, it is viewed as an assignment from God,. way to handle the temporary nature of this physical life. There is. big difference between selfishly trying to squeeze all the fun out of each moment in life----and appreciating each moment in life. Only the believer can really see that there was 'good' (true and lasting) in what he accomplished (Eph. Ecclesiastes 2:10; Revelation 14:13; Matthew 6:19-20). This perspective is called the "gift of God" because only those who believe in Him and have accepted His Word are able to think this way. The man that accepts the timing of every event. and receives food, family and work, as gifts from God, will be the person that can truly enjoy this short life (Ecclesiastes 2:25).
