In this sermon, Damian Thompson leads us in wrapping up our Vapor series, which focuses on the book of Ecclesiastes. Damian shares that reading Ecclesiastes is like listening to those who have walked ahead of us and know where the bumps and difficulties are in life. 

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 "Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing whether it is good or evil." 

Damian explains that to fear God is really to respect Him. He helps us understand why we respect God by providing three key points.
1. God is your creator. He is omnipotent and all-powerful in your trials and difficulties.
2. God knows all. He is omniscient and has all knowledge in the midst of chaos. God makes sense of the chaos. In the midst of your chaos, He knows, and He provides peace. 
3. God is everywhere at the same time, always present. So, in the midst of catastrophe, pray when the pain intensifies because God is there. God is your creator, in full control, fighting on your behalf. 

Damian compels us to understand and prioritize God in our lives, respecting Him and His commandments because He chose you. The master of who we are is our measure to love through the difficulties of this life. And this leads to the one last point: be in awe of God.
