Ecclesiastes 5

Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 NIV

"Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong. Do not be quick with your mouth,
do not be hasty in your heart
to utter anything before God.
God is in heaven
and you are on earth,
so let your words be few. A dream comes when there are many cares,
and many words mark the speech of a fool. When you make a vow to God, do not delay to fulfill it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow. It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it. Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, "My vow was a mistake." Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands? Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore fear God."


i know its a lot...but if you are reading this i encourage you to read all of Ecclesiastes 5

anyways...this is how we should pray...plain and simple...

I know sometimes when i pray..i ramble off to God...i need to be still and listen sometimes...

also...dont be quick to make vows...the new testiment talks about this when it says let your yes be yes and your no be no"

and

Ecclesiastes 5:10 NIV

"Whoever loves money never has enough;
whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income.
This too is meaningless."

whoever loves money never has enough....so i guess it's logical to think...

whoever doesn't love money always has enough...

be content in everything i guess...

well that's it for my daily blog tonight....i guess im going to post my other blog tonight
