About the Book Ecclesiastes 3:1 says "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." As far as this world is concerned, there are always two seasons. Examples of such seasons include those mentioned in Genesis 8:22 - seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night. How then does this apply to man? The abode of man is 'under the heaven' and as a result, according to the earlier quoted Ecclesiastes 3:1, all men are under the influence of these times and seasons whether they are conscious of it or not. As long as men continue to exist 'under the heaven', they are bound to experience these times and seasons at one point or the other in their lifetime. The truth however is some of these seasons could be very frustrating and unpalatable; they are mostly better imagined than experienced. At these times, people find themselves asking all manners of questions; like 'Why Me?' Why did God allow this to happen to me?' among others. But you can be sure God always has answers to man's questions; and that is what this book is offering you - God's response to your questions.
