There's a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens… 9. What do workers gain from their toil? 10. I have seen the burden. God has laid on the human race. 11. He has made everything beautiful in its time, he has also set eternity in the human heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12. I know there's nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13. That each of them may eat and drink and find satisfaction in all their toils.- this is a gift of God.
