To: Salvation
In its most familiar lines it expresses the kairos notion that there is a fitting time for all things:

Thank you, a most timely reference. But since to me, and perhaps to many other freepers, your quote is not so familiar, here is an alternative:

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Please do not see this as a criticism. It is rather that, for me and many of my generation, there was only one Holy Bible, and it has made its home in out hearts.

Dominus tecum.
