“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven; …” Ecclesiastes 3: 3-8 NRSV
This passage, often used at funerals, can actually be applied anywhere in life. The past is behind us, the future is before us, so all we really have is this moment in time. That is not to say the past, and the future, have no place; they really do, in reference to the present.
Every decision we make, is made based on our past experience, and affects the future in some way. Therefore, we should maintain a balance with our time. It is a gift from God, but but is in our care as we go through life.
Go in God’s grace.
