Eternity in our hearts

⁹ What does the worker gain from his toil? ¹⁰ I have seen the burden God has laid on men. ¹¹ He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. ¹² I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. ¹³ That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil—this is the gift of God. ¹⁴ I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men and women will revere him. Ecclesiastes 3:9-14


Ecclesiastes is a sobering book of the Bible to say the least. King Solomon was quite pessimistic, if not down right depressed, at this point of his life (ref. 1 Kings 11) yet we can still gain wisdom from this writing. In my opinion, the scripture above is a good snapshot of life. God has put eternity in our hearts. That's why we are never satisfied with just what we see, we are always striving for more. Only through a relationship with Jesus are our strivings quelled. Then, we are able to "eat and drink, and find satisfaction in our work" for the meantime until our hearts are united with the eternal one. Solomon says that God does this so that people will revere Him. Revere means to "show devoted differential honor to" and respect deeply. Now the Princeton University online dictionary defines "revere" in this way -- idolize: love unquestioningly and uncritically or to excess.
Based on this, I wonder how many of us really revere God. Do we really love God unquestioningly and uncritically? How different are/would our live's be if we do/did this?
