Doing Time
In this powerful exploration of Ecclesiastes 3, Pastor Snook reminds that God has set a time and season for everything in our lives. The familiar verses about 'a time to be born and a time to die' take on new meaning as we consider how God's eternal perspective shapes our earthly experiences. We're challenged to trust in God's timing, even when we don't understand His plan. The message emphasizes that while we may not comprehend every 'why' in our lives, we can choose to focus on God's presence rather than demanding answers. This shift in perspective allows us to find joy and gratitude in all circumstances, transforming our approach to life's challenges. As we learn to 'fear God' - not in terror, but in awe and reverence - we open ourselves to a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with our Creator. The sermon encourages us to live with eternity in our hearts, finding purpose beyond the temporary nature of earthly pleasures and pursuits.
