There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
The Scriptures tell us that there is a time for all things under heaven. God* reminds us of these ‘times for all things’ in the complex changes of seasons, color and landscapes in His beautiful creation. Not only is there a time to plant and harvest, to weep and laugh, mourn and dance, etc, but there is a time to stop and take in the wonder of what the Lord has made simply by speaking His word! He’s worthy of our praise. Take time to admire and praise His wonderous work, wonderous ways and wonderous intricate, complex and perfect timing in all things.
*We are adopted in God’s family when we believe that we can’t earn our way into holiness; we can’t ever be good enough on our own to go to Heaven. This only comes when we understand that Jesus took our sinful nature to death on the cross with Him, and like Him, rise again into a new life (born again) to live eternally with Him and the Father and the Holy Spirit that will live with us to guide us and our prayers and counsel us all our days on earth.
