Sermon Illustrations for New Year's Day (2014)
Ecclesiastes 3:1-13
We like the good times, but we are not so sure about the bad times. We like to get our degree in college, but we are not always happy about the long time of hard work and stress that we have to endure for it. Then the suffering may go on while we are trying to find a job to pay for the cost! We wonder when these ups and downs will ever end. This passage tells us that they never will! There will always be good times and bad times.
