Ecc 8:16 | MHM | STEP | v. 16-17 : Solomon says we should not try to figure out all of God’s reasons, because God’s ways are much greater than ours (Ecclesiastes 8:16-17 ). He tried hard to understand why things happen the way they do, and others have also spent sleepless nights thinking about it. But no matter how hard we try, we cannot fully understand God’s plan. Even the wisest people cannot find out all the answers. God’s ways are deep and mysterious, so we should trust Him, even when we do not understand why things happen.
