Remembering
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Ecclesiastes 11:9-10  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Whereas chapter 11 concentrated on exhorting us to be enthusiastically committed, the beginning of chapter 12 exhorts us not to forget God in our enthusiasm. It is easy to do. Rejoice, he says—but do not forget God! God intends life to be good, but do not forget Him. This means, then, that if we enjoy life yet remember God, we will enjoy the things that He allows us to have, but we will never allow them to control us and will always keep our appetites in check because we fear God, want to impress Him, and want to do right and good. In this way, we will truly enjoy what God has given. John W. Ritenbaugh Ecclesiastes and the Feast of Tabernacles (Part 2)
