“There is a time for everything, 
and a season for every activity under heaven: 

a time to be born and a time to die, 
a time to plant and a time to uproot, 
a time to kill and a time to heal, 
a time to tear down and a time to build, 
a time to weep and a time to laugh, 
a time to mourn and a time to dance, 
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, 
a time to embrace and a time to refrain, 
a time to search and a time to give up, 
a time to keep and a time to throw away, 
a time to tear and a time to mend, 
a time to be silent and a time to speak, 
a time to love and a time to hate, 
a time for war and a time for peace.”

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Thank you, Lord, for the hope and newness that come from walking with you in every season of life. May my journey over the year ahead be filled with an unwavering confidence that comes from knowing you’re unchangeable, unshakable, and unstoppable in all that you seek to do in this world. Surprise me with unexpected delights, peace, and grace as our adventure unfolds. Amen.
