Day 170 of Heart Dive 365. I'm your Bible study friend Kanoi. Welcome to the Heart Dive podcast.

Starting a brand new book today, one of several books that Solomon penned, the book of Ecclesiastes.

And I want to tell you, I really enjoyed studying this today. It's not that I

haven't in the past, but I don't know if there was just a new perspective or new eyeballs or just a

fresh feeling from the spirit of God. But I really, really loved it. And so I hope you guys will

enjoy this lesson today. We will be reading from the ESV by Crossway Translation. But before we

jump into it, I would love it if you are a BSF, a part of the Heartdive family. If you could be so

kind to just hit that thumbs up button, I know we say it every single day, but it's just a little

reminder because it seems like some people don't hear me saying it, or you're just stubborn and like,

I am not hitting that like button. And we only ask that you do that because it helps to continue

to allow our channel to grow to alert YouTube that there is something good going on here,

and they will continue to push out our content to people who are searching Bible study

or anything of the like. So we thank you so much for partnering with us and doing that, especially if this is something that brings value to your life in any way, shape, or form. But if you don't want to, that's totally fine. And subscribing to the channel also helps, but I also know that that feels like a little bit of a commitment and some of us don't like to commit to things. You know, I get it. And that is fine too. But if you are willing to give back, we appreciate your partnership with us. If you're new here, we welcome you. We hope that you'll hang around for a little bit and let us know in the comments where you're watching from, how you found us. Please make sure to check out the show notes or the description box. We've got people joining our Bible study every single day on all different days.

And so I just wanted to encourage you to let you know that you can either just pick up where

we're at, you can go to certain books of the Bible, or you can go to day one. I suggest that

because I believe that we have laid a really strong foundation of

understanding God in His Word and what he intended for us to know through it. We're not even

barely scratching the surface here, but digging a lot deeper than most people do throughout

their lifetime. And so I hope this will add value to your life as well. And if you find

yourself sticking around for more than a couple of days, kind of dig in this community. We also have a Facebook group where we have online groups who meet together weekly. We've got several leaders who lead on different days of the week in different parts of the world and different time zones. They're amazing people. We've got an incredible team who runs that Facebook page over there, all with one purpose, one heart, one mind, and that is just to get people more knowledgeable to be able to have the ability to study on their own, to feel confident, but really just to draw closer to our Lord. And so I hope that that is what has happened for you if you've been here for a while. And don't forget to check out our website. We've got a website, heartdive.org. Lots of information there, and we've got added resources. So you can go peruse on through there and see if there is anything that interests you. Contact information, everything in the description box below. If you have any questions at all, leave them in the comments and we will do our best to be able to answer that.

Otherwise, we're gonna go ahead and get into it, because there's a lot to cover here today. So let's go ahead and pray, prepare our hearts. Heavenly Father, what an honor it is to be able to be here in your space, again, in your presence, in this place with our brothers and sisters. Lord, you said that we're two or more gathered. There you are in the midst of them. And so we know

that you are here with us, Holy Spirit. We thank you for that. We just honor you and we humble
