raindrops

This is a quote I heard one morning last week while I was driving to work.
"A fruitful life needs the rain just as much as it needs the sun."
I shared this with my facebook friends, but I also want this to be in my journal so that I can reflect back days, weeks, or years to come. We all need to be reminded that there is a time and season for everything. God does not make mistakes. Nor does he assign you someone else's role in life. Be obedient and allow God to use you where you are, He knows where he placed you. We must trust and obey.

1 For everything there is a season,
a time for every activity under heaven.
2 A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to plant and a time to harvest.
3 A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up.
4 A time to cry and a time to laugh.
A time to grieve and a time to dance.
5 A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a time to turn away.
6 A time to search and a time to quit searching.
A time to keep and a time to throw away.
7 A time to tear and a time to mend.
A time to be quiet and a time to speak.
8 A time to love and a time to hate.
A time for war and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
