A Circular Pattern

 




“When peace like a river

Attendth my way

When sorrows like sea billows roll

Whatever my lot, thou has taught me to say

It is well; it is well with my soul.”

 

God has us firmly in His hands

He created all in a balance

Solomon said it well in Ecclesiastes chapter 3:1-8:

 

“There is a time for everything

And a season for every activity under the heavens.”

“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 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 from embracing

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.”

 

 

There is balance in it all

The circle of Life aligns in the heart

In this, there is true peace

God created these seasons of Life

 

A circular pattern of renewal

Though our bodies grow old

Our cells still regenerate

 

A tree grows and gives shade

Yet when the time is right

It is cut down to create many things

 

Crops are planted

Then at the right time

They are harvested for food

 

God’s provision is in what He created

Marvelous and Wonderous

Here we rest in Him

Here is our peace

Within this circular pattern
