A verse to remember...

Ecclesiastes 3


A Time for Everything


1 There is a time for everything,
and 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 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,


5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,


6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,


7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,


8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Time is priceless, yet it costs us nothing. We can do anything we want with it, but own it. You can spend it, but you can’t keep it, and once you’ve lost it, there is no getting it back. It’s just, gone.
love you cous,

Yes - I agree with you A. And yet - Time is a gift to us! Our days are numbered by God - only he knows the beginning and the end. I am thankful to have the moments I have for in those moments is where I make LIFE.
