-The only thing believers use alcohol for is fellowship.
-Our projects apart from God are meaningless.
-Your home, yard, landscaping, renovation, or any other project is futile apart from the Lord.
-Solomon made over $2,700,000 per day. He threw a party where he served 22,000 cows and 150,000 sheep. He owned 12,000 horses and had 30,000 employees. You will not have a glimpse of his possessions.
