I awoke early this morning and as I walked my "Pal", I noticed that it was cooler than other recent days (probably because I was almost 2 hours earlier than normal). I thought of the weather in Florida in the winter months and how cool (not really cold, however) it could be. So, here we are in July and its Independence Day- soon another year will pass and the seasons will change.
When I sat down to my computer, I noticed these two glass balls and how they reflect the world around them; and thought- Fall to winter, how BEAUTIFUL!!!
Change can be a beautiful thing, something wonderful!!! Naturally, Ecclesiastes came to mind and with it a message of change...
Ecclesiastes, Chapter 3 (World English Bible)
1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under 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 seek,
and a time to lose;
a time to keep,
and a time to cast away;
7 a time to tear,
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 for war,
and a time for peace.
Things change. What will I do with the rest of my life? Change for the better, or not? How about you? If there were a crystal ball next to you, what season would be reflected by you??? Is today a time for a change?
