Dr. Stephen W. Christian shares the message, “Going Through Seasons” on Sunday, July 12, 2008.
There is a season for everything. A season for rain, sunshine, flood, drought. Everybody has their seasons. In this life you don’t get just one season or one kind of season. It will neither be sunshine all the time, nor rain all the time. By sunshine, I mean good days all the time. In this life everybody gets sunny, rainy, hot, and cold days, each at different times.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-11 (New Living Translation)
“1 There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. 2 A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. 3 A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to rebuild. 4 A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. 5 A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. 6 A time to search and a time to lose. A time to keep and a time to throw away. 7 A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak up. 8 A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace. 9 What do people really get for all their hard work? 10 I have thought about this in connection with the various kinds of work God has given people to do.
11 God has made everything beautiful for its own time.”
