In God We Trust
To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate;
a time of war, and a time of peace.
-Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
These verses were on my mind for a while. There has been quite a lot of complaining going on. Why complain? God knows what he's doing. He's got a time for everything and everyone, and has a purpose for everything he does. There is a reason for war, for death, for sorrow, and for loss! For instance, there was a reason I was in the car accident. Afterwards, I realized there was a reason I was alive. God has a purpose for my life. I continue to search for God's will, to this day. I screw up sometimes, very true. But God picks me back up every time and we continue our walk together.So I guess, I'm saying God can be trusted. He knows what he's doing. In God we trust.
