“Brother, come;
from all that grieves you
you are freed;
all you need
I again will bring you.”
“To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
God gives. He created. “And it was so” … “And it was good.” (from Genesis 1)
A time for every purpose set forth by the Lord God Almighty.
That time is our lives … lived for (or against) God.
God’s choice is for us to live for Him. But it is also His choice for us to have free will. So it is up to us, each individually, what our lives will really be.
When we accept Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior, our road of life takes a turn to live for Him instead of seeking out personal delights.
Through all our travels the Lord is with us. In every step we take the Lord is there. He provides everything we need. We have become free from all that formerly enslaved us – our selfish desires.
We are in Christ. We lift up our burdens to Him; we lay them down at His feet.
“To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven.”
Jesus will come again. A season.
“the fullness of the times”
The culmination
All things in Christ He might gather together in one
In heaven
And on earth
In Him. Him alone.
“That in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth _ in Him.” (Ephesians 1:10)
