A Time for Everything

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

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 week, 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 lost; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and 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

There is a time for everything that happens. This scripture popped into my head early this week. It really sums up a lot of what I have learned. I have learned so many things this past summer.

I've learned that:

Sometimes you have to let people go, even though you thought you'd keep them around for ever and ever

My priorities are starting to change and have become different than many others

Boys shouldn't be one of my top priorities

Sometimes people will let you down, and you will be hurt but that's okay

I'm a complete worry wart over little tiny things

The bad times will end

Good memories should be treasured and the bad forgotten

The good is always mixed in with the bad

Time is a strange thing

There is a time for everything and everyone

God's Timing is the BEST Possible timing out there
