Ecclesiastes 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
Ecclesiastes 3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
Ecclesiastes 3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
Ecclesiastes 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
The second
week of March is the beginning of daylight savings time. The clock is turned forward one hour so there
will be more daylight at the end of the day.
That allows us to do things outside that we enjoy or get tasks done that
require daylight. We really are not getting more time in a day; we are just
using the time differently. This is a
good time to think about if we are using our time wisely. God gave us time on Earth to give us a chance
to prepare for His kingdom. This is our
chance to develop a relationship with God. Are we doing things that are
pleasing to God, or are we wasting time that could be used for a better
purpose? How we use our time shows God
what we think is important. Think about what you did this past week. Name some
things you did that were important to you. How much time did you set aside for God?
In Ecc 3:1 it say's there is a time for everything. God has a plan and purpose for everything in our lives.
