There Is A Time

 

 

Things happen in this world that we don’t understand

“God!  Take away my pain!” is what we demand.

 

But God answers us in His Holy Word-

Have you read it or haven’t you heard?

 

Particularly, God tells us in Ecclesiastes chapter three

Something I think important for me and you to see.

 

God tells us in His word there is a time for everything.

A time for winter, and a time for spring.

 

There is under heaven a season for every activity-

A time for firmness and a time for sensitivity.

 

There is a time to be born, and a time to die.

A time to laugh, and a time to sigh.

 

There is a time to plant, a time to uproot.

A time to hide and a time to salute.

 

There is a time to kill and a time to heal

And never is there a time to steal!

 

There is a time to tear down and a time to build

                          A time to be empty and a time to be filled.

 

A time to weep and a time to laugh

A time to intercede on a brother’s behalf.

 

There is a time to mourn and a time to dance

A time for love and for romance.

 

 

There is a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them

A time to protect and a time to condemn.

 

A time to embrace and a time to refrain.

Never is there a time to be vain!

 

There is a time to search, and yet a time to give up.

For it is with you that God wants to sup!

 

He loves more then you could ever know-

He wrote you a Letter telling you so!

 

There is a time to keep and a time to throw away

A time to sleep and a time to pray.

 

There is a time to tear and a time to mend,

A time your friendship you should extend.

 

A time to be silent and a time to speak,

A time to be bold and a time to be meek.

 

There is a time to love and a time to hate

A time to move and a time to wait.

 

There is a time for war and a time for peace

And a time for you your fears release. 

 

Release them to your Father above-

For He’s filled for you with love!

 

Will you accept this precious gift He’s given?

Will you accept that you are forgiven?

 

If you do, then tell Jesus what you have done.

For the only way to God is through His precious Son!
