To everything there is a season

My ability to post more than two pictures is about to be tested. Having said that, I would like to share my favorite verse from Ecclesiastes along with some pictures of my family and seasons. I have a photo of this verse hanging in my bedroom. May you embrace all of your seasons!

To everything there is a season,
a time for every purpose under the sun.
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 weep and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn and a time to dance ...
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to lose and a time to seek;
a time to rend and a time to sew;
a time to keep 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
