To Everything There is a Season

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heavens.

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted.

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up.

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance.

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing.

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep, and a time to speak.

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

 


 

Take the time now to enjoy your beautiful surroundings. Close your eyes and relish the sweet aromas of the trees and plants, the feel of the breeze against your face, the warmth of the sun on your skin. Let the wonderful outdoors steal your mind away and take you to a place of peace and serenity. A place where you alone can unwind and melt away the stresses of everyday life. Take a moment to reflect on wonderful, warm memories of yesteryear. Take time for yourself now and improve your health, nourish your relationships, love our God and extend your life. We only have one shot at life, so don't waste a single precious minute of it!
