If you were in worship at Hillside Church last Sunday, or if you watched online, you heard me say, “At Hillside Church, it is not the time for weeping.” I then briefly referenced Ecclesiastes 3.
Here’s the entire section (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8):
1 For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven:
2 a time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted;
3 a time to kill and a time to heal; a time to break down and a time to build up;
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance;
5 a time to throw away stones and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 a time to seek and a time to lose; a time to keep and a time to throw away;
7 a time to tear and a time to sew; a time to keep 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.
What time do you think it is in your life and at Hillside Church?
