—Ecclesiastes 3:2-8
by: Steve Osborn.
As I write, I am “sheltering at home” to do my part in helping to stem the current threat of the coronavirus. The days can seem so long when you are not able to get out and about. But recognizing this is temporary and a desirable alternative to the devastation COVID-19 could wreak puts things in perspective. Solomon reminds us of a similar thought—that there is a time and a place for everything. Have you ever considered how our negative experiences make the positive ones that much better? The richness of the life with which God has blessed us includes highs and lows, pains and thrills, sickness and health, sorrow and joy. Embrace it all and praise God through it!
