A time for Everything

Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses.

He sets the time for birth and the time for death, the time for planting and the time for pulling up, the time for killing and the time for healing, the time for tearing down and the time for building. Time for sorrow and the time for, the time for mourning. He sets time for finding and the time for losing, the time for saving and the time for throwing away. Time for tearing and the time for mending, time for silence and the time for talk. He sets time for LOVE and the time for HATE the time for war and the time for peace. Everything takes place at the right time.

Likewise…
Everything takes time at the right place.

He has set the right time for everything. He has given us a desire to know the future, but never gives us the satisfaction of fully understanding what He does. All we can do is to be happy and do the best we can while we are still alive. Everything that God does will last forever. We can’t add anything to it or take anything away from it. And one thing God does is to make us stand in awe of him. Whatever happens or can happen has already happened before. In addition, I have also noticed that in this world you find wickedness where justice and right ought to be. I once told myself,

“every thing and every action, will happen at its own set time.”

God is testing us, to show us that we are no better than animals. After all, the same FATE of HUMAN BEINGS and ANIMALS alike. One dies just like the other. They are the same kind of creature. A  HUMAN BEING is no better off than an animal, for LIFE has no meaning for either. I realized then that the best thing we can do is to relish what we worked for. There is no way for us to know what will happen after we die. I have also learned why people work so hard to succeed: it is because they envy the things their neighbors have. But it is useless. It is like CHASING THE WIND. They say that we would be fools to fold our hands and let ourselves STARVE to DEATH. Maybe so, but it is better to have little, with peace of mind, than be so busy all the time with both hands, trying to catch the wind.

“Now is the time for me to rise to my feet, wipe this spit in my face… Wipe this tears in my eyes.”
