Ecclesiastes 7:20-12:14

This exploration of Ecclesiastes chapters 7-12 offers us profound wisdom for navigating life in a broken world. At its heart lies a powerful reminder: everyone sins, including us. We're challenged to examine our tendency to maintain photographic memories of wrongs done to us while conveniently forgetting our own failures. The text invites us to practice forbearance—simply letting go of offenses without confrontation or critique. We're reminded that no one, regardless of power or position, escapes ultimate accountability before God. The patient delay of divine judgment isn't permission to continue in sin; it's mercy extended to lead us toward repentance.
