Ecclesiastes 3 Verse 14: "I know that all God does will last forever, there is no adding to it or taking from it. God works so that people will be in awe of Him."
If we turn and look at Ecclesiastes 3 verse 14, it seems to suggest that nothing people do really does matter. Ultimately, God's will is going to be done, and if nothing can be added, or taken away from His work, then why should we attempt to do anything? Why not just wait for God to do everything? That perspective forgets, what Jesus said on the cross, "It is Finished".
God has now chosen to do things, through His New Creations, those who accept His redemptive work of the cross. Those who come to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savor, become agents of God's power and purposes. We are not just puppets who mindlessly jump to commands. God calls us to an intimate partnership with Him { 1 Corinthians 1 verse 5 to 7 }
Verse 5: "that by Him you were made rich in everything --- in all speaking and all knowledge__-."
Verse 6: "As the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you."
Verse 7: "so that you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ."
Given this reality, we can now read Ecclesiastes 3 verse 14, as an invitation for us to link our goals, our dreams, and our skills to God's great design.
The sky is the limit or the visual limit we can see, when we have Our Creator God Our Lord and Our Friend to be our mentor, our guide and our source of Real Life.
He loves you and He created you for a destiny.
God Bless.
