Looking out at the snow this morning, life’s seasons came to mind.
“3 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.”
Good times. Hard times. Bleak times. Joyful times.
Through it all, God is faithful. It has hit me much lately that I also want to be faithful, faithful to the end. I want to be a faithful example of Christ to others no matter what. This song has been on my heart much lately.
