The Value of Diligence
They empty themselves upon the earth;
And if a tree falls to the south or the north,
In the place where the tree falls, there it shall lie.
bOr how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child,
So you do not know the works of God who makes everything.

Ecclesiastes 11:3
Solomon is saying there is going to be many unanticipated things occur in life. A cloud goes over. You do not know if it is going to rain or not. If it does go over and it dumps all its water on you, it may wash your farm away. You did not plan for that. He is giving a warning on the one hand. He said, "Risk what you have and give your all to living a life by faith." Be generous and enthusiastic in doing it, but also be aware that there are going to be adversities. Things are not always going to go the way you would like them to go.
