Yesterday felt like Spring. I know it isn't, but it even sounded like Spring. When I got off work I had to wait a few minutes for Mike to come get me. I stepped outside and immediately heard dripping sounds all around. There were icicles everywhere but they were melting quickly.
There is something about feeling/seeing/smelling a new season approach that I like. Why do you suppose that is? I think there is something about change that is kind of refreshing. Is it a feeling of hope, maybe? Do any of you feel this way? What is it about the current season that always starts to feel a bit old?
Ecclesiastes 3
New International Version (NIV)
A Time for Everything
3 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
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.
