“To everything there
is a season…A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to
mourn, and a time to dance;” Ecc. 3:1, 4
A season for everything—this
morning You gently reminded me of this infallible truth. If there is weeping
now, there will be laughter in the future. I may mourn in this moment, but at
some point I will feel carefree enough to dance again. You will cause me to
laugh and dance. You will give me joy someday; but for now there is a purpose
in my pain. This is my season to weep and mourn. I do not know how long I must
endure this sorrow. However, I can rest in knowing it is but for a season in my
life. I will not always know this overwhelming sense of sadness. I will not
always feel this hopelessness. You will shelter me through the storms that
gather during this turbulent season until it is time to bask in the sunlight
and dance with the wind. For now, I must persevere through the long, harsh
winter; yet soon spring will arrive with new life and hope for a future full of
laughter and light.
