Dr. Lance Wade Patterson
1970 - 2003

There is a season for
everything, a time for every
occupation under heaven.

A time for giving birth,
A time for dying,
A time for planting,
A time for uprooting
what has been planted.
A time for killing,
A time for healing;
A time for knocking down,
A time for building.
A time for tears,
A time for laughter;
A time for mourning,
A time for dancing.
A time for
throwing stones away,
A time for
gathering them up;
A time for embracing,
A time to
refrain from embracing.
A time for searching,
A time for losing;
A time for keeping.
A time for throwing away.
A time for tearing,
A time for sewing;
A time for keeping silent,
A time for speaking.
A time for loving,
A time for hating;
A time for war,
A time for peace.

(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8)
