A time for everything

Ecclesiastes 3
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,

a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,

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

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

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

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

What does the worker gain from his toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on men. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil—this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men will revere him.

Start of something new

Friends of mine have been blogging for months now. I've looked at their blogs, and other people's blogs that they have linked to...and I've found a stirring inside me to begin the creative process within me once again. I've been afraid to start something, though, and not be able to keep up. After all, the true bloggers are the ones who keep posts current. I'm not sure I'm disciplined enough to do that...but I'll try to post at least once a week if I can. (After all, it's just a little time out of my lunch break.)

I've taken some time out of my creativeness to begin a family, but that was 6 years ago. Not to say I haven't been creative, just to say I don't see myself pursuing a lot of the creative avenues I have in the past, like painting, writing poetry, music, etc. Now, after the birth of our second child, I'm ready to see what God has in store for me, as I begin to find time for Him in a new way. So...not a huge religious piece, but an expectant one. I expect God to show up and bring new insight to things as I blog.

Hopefully, it will be one you'll want to visit again. Let me know if you're checking in. I'd love to see who's interested. If you don't comment, that's okay. Not everything requires a response...sometimes we need to be okay with just being, not doing.
