Wisdom for a Dangerous World

Ecclesiastes 8:1-17 shows us that we need wisdom to navigate this dangerous world. But wisdom doesn't enable us to control our situations or know all God is doing. We must trust in Him and His ways. As we do so, we can enjoy the life He gives us, knowing that it will be well for us in the end.

1. Conduct yourself wisely with those
   in power (8:1-5)

2. We don't know the future and can't
   control the present (8:6-9)

3. Injustice abounds, but enjoy the
   life God gives (8:10-15)

4. Even the wisest cannot know all
   God's work (8:16-17)
