A Time
What season are you in? Sometimes one season just rolls into the next. Others are hard longed for, a waiting for a joy and a release to come. Then there are the ones that are difficult to let go of.
Literal Fall is coming for me right now. I always hate it when one season ends, until the next one arrives giving me hope. Summer has it's freedom. Bringing vacations that for me calls my children home and takes me to them. Fall cuts that short, yet the colors in the leaves and the soft fall breezes
can bring a different kind of comfort.
This sketch is of a season tree. The tree holds symbols of the seasons of life, sorrow, joy, love and tears. But in everything we can give thanks, and we can dance in praise to God.
This sermon came from the verse in Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. Further encouragement comes from Psalm 30.
Life happens, but God is always with us.
There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
