'Do not say "Why were the old days better than these?" For it is not wise to ask such questions.' - Ecclesiastes 7:10
Everything the world chases after is only but in vanity. Merely the chasing of the wind. Isn't it better to have only one handful but have tranquility than to have two handfuls and have toil? I commend the enjoyment of life, for indeed there is nothing better than eating and sleeping and being glad. Fear the Lord always and keep to His commandments. Seek His will always and ask whatever you wish and you will have your faith rewarded. For it is pointless to be faithful in the things of the ungodly and are not part of His will -such faith is called 'blind faith' - and it'll lead to nothing but more turmoil.
'If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.' John 15:7
As it is, faith not in accordance with the will of God is pointless.
