Just a simple quote from Elisabeth Elliot but great words to ponder.

There is no perfect life, no perfect job, no perfect childhood, no perfect marriage, and no perfect set of people who will always do what we expect them to do.

What we have is a perfect God who is able to lead us through this imperfect life with unfailing strength, incomparable wisdom, and infinite love.

Ecclesiastes 3:

A Time for Everything

3 There is a time for everything,
    and a season for every activity under the heavens:

2     a time to be born and a time to die,
    a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3     a time to kill and a time to heal,
    a time to tear down and a time to build,
4     a time to weep and a time to laugh,
    a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5     a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
    a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6     a time to search and a time to give up,
    a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7     a time to tear and a time to mend,
    a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8     a time to love and a time to hate,
    a time for war and a time for peace.

MOLESKIN:

There is a time for all things and that is the way it is intended.  Try to focus on being present in each of those times.  When the sad or difficult times come let’s not become depressed and pine for the “good old days”…Be present in the difficulty and try to help those around you.  When the happy times are here enjoy them and be present….rather than be burdened by regrets and things in the past.  If there is a time for all things then be present in that time when in happens.
