Eccl. 12:1-8 THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES

Intro:  Ill. Soap Operas.  After the theme music has played for a moment, one has an announcer who says, “Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives.”  Now, I am not sure of all the philosophical aspects of that statement, but a couple of profound truths are clearly implied.  First, life is short.  Second, life is filled with many changes. Both of those statements is true.  Life is short.  This is the testimony of Scripture, James 4:14; Job 7:6-7; 14:1-2; Psalm 39:5; 89:47. And, Life is also very eventful. Some of the happenings of life are good and others are not so good.  Also, what happens to me might not happen to you.But, it is safe to say that there are some things that will happen to each and every person in the world!  In this passage, Solomon mentions three events that will take place in the life of every person in this room.  Since life is so short and since this is material we all need to hear, I want to point out these three common events today.  I want to preach for a few minutes on The Days Of Our LIVES!
