time to be BORN and time to DIE

Ecc 3: There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven.

There is a time to be born and a time to die.
That is the great art of life, a mysterious collage of unexpected elements that take place between the beginnings and endings. Even today, we are putting down our layers, one right after another, creating and recreating ourselves. Our God is making everything beautiful in its time. While we wait, we must breath and heal and grieve and become. We don't see the beauty immediately, but as we look back, we find the art in and through it all.
