Season for Everything

    Its getting colder outside, I love it! Fall ,to me, means bonfires, hoodies, crisp air, and Holidays! But sadly Fall also means that I had to start back to school and thats one thing that I really dont like. In public High School, its not easy to find friends in the Faith and for the past couple weeks I've been feeling that me being in high school was pulling away from all the potential I have to be set a flame for God.But boy was my heart in the wrong place. A reoccuring scripture that kept popping up in life was Ecclesiastes 3 :

^"1 For everything there is a season,
a time for every activity under heaven.
² A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to plant and a time to harvest.
³ A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up.
⁴ A time to cry and a time to laugh.
A time to grieve and a time to dance.
⁵ A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a time to turn away.
⁶ A time to search and a time to quit searching.
A time to keep and a time to throw away.
⁷ A time to tear and a time to mend.
A time to be quiet and a time to speak.
⁸ A time to love and a time to hate.
A time for war and a time for peace.

⁹ What do people really get for all their hard work? ¹⁰ I have seen the burden God has placed on us all. ¹¹ Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end. ¹² So I concluded there is nothing better than to be happy and enjoy ourselves as long as we can. ¹³ And people should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of their labor, for these are gifts from God."

 
A season for everything. Although, I want to go out and be sent and do all these things and not have the world weighing so heavily on my thoughts and just devote all my time to God...its not that season for me yet, and the more i sit and wallow in the 'i just want to graduate' thoughts...the more im missing out on of the season im in! So i encourage whoever reads this not to rush through the season of life God has you in for a reason. Look for the beauty..look for how He wants to use you where you are now.Remeber HIS plan is perfect!

Each time He said, "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.  - 2 Corinthians 12:9
