ECCLESIASTES 3

(1) To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the 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 get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; (7) a time to rend, 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 of war, and a time of peace.

 This week I want to just share these verses. I have been reading them and really pondering what they mean. These verses are quoted often and even written in songs and movies. The next few weeks we will break down these verses, and figure when each time is. So many people always ask questions on why things happen and why does God allow such things to happen. This study will really help us to understand God more and give us more knowledge to help others when these questions are asked. This will be a nice study series and being you already know what we will be studying you can get a head start.
