Balance

Keeping the Balance

• 
  Ecclesiastes 3:1-9

  New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
• • 3 There is an appointed time for everything,

    A time for every activity under the heavens:

     2 A time for birth and a time to die;

    A time to plant and a time to uproot what was planted;

     3 A time to kill and a time to heal;

    A time to tear down and a time to build up;

     4 A time to weep and a time to laugh;

    A time to wail and a time to dance;*

     5 A time to throw stones away and a time to gather stones together;

    A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;

     6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost;

    A time to keep and a time to throw away;

     7 A time to rip apart+ and a time to sew together;

    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.

    9 What does the worker gain from all his efforts?+

We live in an imperfect world, we must maintain proper balance within ourselves, until the appointed time arrives.
