Reading – Ecclesiastes 3:1-15

Highlight Verse:

“And people should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of their labor, for these are gifts from God.”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬ ‭NLT‬‬

No, you aren’t having déjà vu. I highlighted this verse a couple of weeks ago.

I bring it back today because I am at the tail end of a week of enjoying the fruits of my labor.

Today, I will drop my family off at the Portland, OR airport so they can get home quickly while I road trip back to Colorado with the minivan.

Even being thrifty, it’s crazy how much money we blew through in the last week.

But it was all worth it to have all that time with the family with no more responsibility than picking a place to eat or meal to bring home from the grocery store.

The week has seen long conversations, fun games, kites on the beach, a few sunsets, and a hike to a lighthouse.

We even had a little Father’s Day celebration yesterday since I’ll be on the road tomorrow.

I always recommend staying within your means when it comes to leisure activities.

But if it is possible, family vacations are a great way to spend the fruits of your labors.

What was the best family vacation you have been on?
What made it the best?
