Chapter 3 justify that there is a time for everything. For example in verse 17 Solomon said, "God will judge both the righteous man and the wicked man, for a time for every matter and for every deed is there" .This tells me that which or what that god created can't be added to or taken from. Were we should both love him and fear him, as to rejoice at all that god pleased us with shows gratitude, while fearing him shows that we do not intent to being wicked. This relate to me, because i cant never find time to complete something i always move it a later date, this mangles with what God has put forth for me on that day, resulting to me becoming a slacker.

verses 1-8
I really appreciate the everyone who applied to this weekly dissucssion. It exhibits that you want to get closers to Christ and sharing your thoughts with others. This chapter can be broken into three parts. The first part talks about timing. There is a time for everything (which everyone understood), He speaks of many different types of time for two reasons: first to tell us that there is nothing in this world perpetual (everlasting) and secondly, to teach us not to be unhappy or sad if we do not have all the things we want or desire and how we should get so attach with the things we have because we may not have them as long as we would wish.

verses 9-15
These verse tells us how God allows man to enjoy His earthly gifts. He also put enternity in our hearts qnd that is why we always want things to last forever. Finally, everthing God does endure foever nothing can be added or taken away from the things He does. That is why it is better to put our hopes, trust, and life in Him.

verses 16-22
The last few verses Solomon says again that everything is vainity even the life of men and God will judge those who was righteous and those who were wicked on earth. The verses also want us to know that we are who we are because of God. We are not much more then animals for when they die they are buried in dust and so are we. It is the spirit of God that make us different from animals. So lets rejoices for what we have and live a righteous life that God can be part of !!!!!
