Ecclesiastes 5:19

"Furthermore, as for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, he has also empowered him to eat from them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God."whom God has given" -The man or woman who really enjoys the things of this life, is the person who realizes that everything they have is from God. If not for the mercy and grace of God, they realize that they would have absolutely nothing (Luke 6:35; Matthew 5:45; Acts 14:15-17; Ecclesiastes 17:25).

"he has also empowered him to eat from them" -that is, the ability to really enjoy such things. Instead of worrying about his wealth, the righteous man simply enjoys what he has. He doesn't fret about losing it all, for if he did-he would still be very wealthy in the sight of God. There is. great lesson here. Only the man or woman who has God as the center of their life-is able to enjoy the nice things this life has to offer. Outside of Christ possessions and wealth will naturally cause you to worry, fret, envy, and so on. Please note that wealth isn't bad or good, riches are not evil in and of themselves. When they are looked upon with. proper attitude and used in harmony with God's ordained will, they bring joy. Abundance is useless without the ability to enjoy it.
