“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own undestanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy paths.” —Proverbs 3:5-6

Ecclesiastes 3

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

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

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

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

7 A time to arend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8 A time to love.
