Amen. The first Conservationists were CONSERVATIVES...Like Teddy Roosevelt.
The first Feminists were Pro-Life.
It’s all twisted,and nobody knows the true story.

A Season For Everything
March 3, 2015
Read:
Ecclesiastes 3:1-13 | Bible in a Year:
Numbers 28-30; Mark 8:22-38
If youre like me, youve struggled with having to say no to taking on a new responsibilityespecially if its for a good cause and directly related to helping others. We may have sound reasons for carefully selecting our priorities. Yet sometimes, by not agreeing to do more, we may feel guilty or we may think that somehow we have failed in our walk of faith.
But according to Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, wisdom recognizes that everything in life has its own seasonin human activities as in the realm of nature. There is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven (3:1).
Perhaps you are getting married or becoming a parent for the first time. Maybe you are leaving school and entering the workforce, or moving from fulltime work to retirement. As we move from season to season, our priorities change. We may need to put aside what we did in the past and funnel our energy into something else.
When life brings changes in our circumstances and obligations, we must responsibly and wisely discern what kind of commitments we should make, seeking in whatever we do to do all to the glory of God (1 Cor. 10:31). Proverbs 3:6 promises that as we acknowledge Him in all our ways, He will guide us in the way we should go.
Heavenly Father, give me Your wisdom to know what priorities I need to have at this season of my life. Guide me in all that I do. I only want to bring You the honor You deserve with the way I live.
Commitment to Christ is a daily calling that challenges us.
: The book of Ecclesiastes shows what life is like without God (1:1-2) and reminds us to include Him in our lives (12:1). In todays passage, Solomon affirms Gods sovereignty over all human life (3:11). He observes that we are time-bound, experiencing between birth and death a complexity of events (vv. 2-8). God is in control of our lives, making everything beautiful in its time (v. 11).

Well another bad night, second in a row. Very little sleep for the pain. See the Ortho today. Maybe he will have some answers to the OA/OP hip pain. IF the weather holds off.
The pulse regulating med PCP put me on had some side effects I could not stand.
