"For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven." Eccl 3:1

God's word says it.  A time for everything.  Hard to wrap your mind around sometimes, or at least for me it is.  A time to cry and a time to rejoice.  A time to grieve and a time to dance. A time to embrace and a time to turn away.

Our youngest daughter Hannah just walked for her high school graduation on Saturday morning.  It was kind of strange for me since she graduated early and has been out of the high school routine for 6 months already.  It was wonderful though to see her walk with her classmates and hear her name called and receive her diploma.  A right of passage. 

I saw some parents cry.  Some laughed.  Some smiled with pride.  Some breathed a sigh of relief.  I just kept thinking, this is her time, her friends, her victory, her memories.  It was a time to rejoice.  As I looked to her future I wonder when her "time" to find the one God has created for her will be.  I wonder what salon she will hold her first job at.  I wonder what trials will come to her life that will be her time to weep.  And then it hit me.  I wonder, but God knows.  He knows all of her days and has from the time she was created.  He will not forsake her.  What a joy to serve a God who is in control of the "times" of our life! 

I am excited to see what each day holds for our graduate.  She is on an adventure serving Christ and seeing where He leads.  She's praying for His will.  I'm praying for it too, for her life and for mine.

Whatever "time" it is in my life, I sure am glad my Savior will sustain me.
