Ecclesiastes 3:1 "To
everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under
heaven."
The writer of Ecclesiastes lists some of the seasons in
human experience: birth and death, gain and loss, tears and laughter, mourning
and dancing. Just as the seasons in nature change, so do the seasons in our
lives. Our circumstances never stay the same for long.
Sometimes we welcome change in our lives. But often it is difficult, especially when it involves sorrow and loss. Yet even then we can be thankful that God does not change. "I am the Lord," He said through the prophet Malachi, "I do not change." (3:6)
Because God remains the same, we can rely on Him through the shifting seasons of life. His presence is always with us, His peace has the power to guard our hearts and His love provides security for our souls.
