Seasons of Beauty

“He has made everything beautiful in its time.  He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.”  Ecclesiastes 3:11

     There is nothing without God.  There is nothing that does not have its beginning in God, and its ending.  We live as a creation of God.  We live because He breathed life into us and made us in His image and likeness.  We are each beautiful, and our beauty reflects His beauty.  “I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it.”  Ecclesiastes 3:14

     Because we are a reflection of His beauty our inner being cries out to be one with Him.  We seek Him, even without knowing,

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:  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 from embracing, 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.”  Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
