1 The Epiphany Star February 2019 Newsletter of Epiphany Lutheran Church Fort Wayne, Indiana Dear Epiphany Lutheran Church, For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: 2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; 3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance (Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 NRSV). Over the past several months these words from the Book of Ecclesiastes have spoken to me. Why are these words important to our Spiritual well-being? How can they help us in times of great despair or joy? At the beginning of chapter 3, the author writes that there is a SEASON for everything under heaven. It is important for us to know this and to help everyone in their particular SEASON of life. When we were children the most important parts of our day were simply to grow up. Playing with our friends, school, eating, and worship were, at least in my life, important priorities. As we grew in years other parts of life began to take priority. Developing the gifts God had given you to become the person God intended you to be. Time started to become a very important part of lives. Watching the time at school. Watching the time for our favorite television program. Watching the time for when we were scheduled to be some place. Yet, we also learned how to procrastinate I will do that later. Do we really have all of the time in the world to do what we want? When we were younger, we might of thought this way, but as we advance in years the concept of time starts to take on a different meaning. Time with family and friends start to take a priority. We want to spend more time with them. I read a posting on Facebook that read, When we were younger, we snuck out from our room to go to parties. Today we sneak out of parties, so we can go home. When was the last time you really took a look at your life and labeled some priorities? The month of February is often thought of as a month of LOVE because of Valentine s Day. If that is case- we need to take a moment to spend time with those that mean so much to us. Take a moment and call them. Take a moment and visit them in person. Take moment to tell them that you love them. Do not let the sun set before you tell them how important they are to your life.
2 God takes a moment to say I Love You when you wake up and open your eyes to see the creation God has made. God takes a moment to say I Love You when we look at the sunrise or sunset with all of the colors in the sky. God takes a moment to say I Love You when someone reaches out to touch us and speak the words. God provides for us all of the time. Isn t time for us to give thanks and praise to God for everything? After all whose time is it anyway? In Christ, Pastor Richard Hartman We are Christians, called by God, committed to: Sharing the Gospel, Serving others as Christ taught us, and Creating disciples for witness.
