“Finishing is better than starting. Patient is better than pride.
Control your temper, for anger labels you as a fool.
Don’t long for the ‘good old days.’ This is not wise.” (vv. 8-10)
“Accept the way God does things, for who can straighten what He has made crooked?
Enjoy prosperity while you can, be when hard times strike, realized that both come from God.
Remember that nothing is certain in life.” (vv. 13-14)
“Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins.” (v. 20)
