For Everything a Season?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

No rest for the weary, no peace for the warring.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

When I’m pressed for time and swamped with things to do, you offer focus and clarity and perspective.
When I’m tired and depressed from the grind and the news of the day, you bring renewal, energy, and hope that a better day is coming.
When I have time to relax, be with loved ones, see new sights, you provide joy, your awesome presence, and a fresh sense of wonder.
There is no time or season without your gracious touch. How can we possibly miss noticing it? How greatly we would miss it if it were absent.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“For everything there is a season, it is said. Why not one for sex, Rabbi?”

[He was hard on his teachers, but there’s no record that He asked this question.]
