Ecclesiastes 2:22-24
Excerpted from: God's Promise of Rest

What do we have for all this toil in this world, Solomon says. And hold on to this: he says, "all of our days are sorrowful, our work is burdensome, and we will find no rest, not even in the night." Under the sun, that is the key phrase here, here on earth, we find nothing but sorrow, burdensome work, and no rest. Are we struggling, brethren, to find rest, struggling to even sleep at night? Solomon in his wisdom could see the vanity of everything under the sun, everything without God in focus. No matter how hard we work, all material achievements are nothing but vanity. The fruit of physical labor does not fulfill God's purpose for man, but it does bring a very valuable lesson each and every day. When we combine our hard work with a relationship with God, we can achieve growth in character.
