Enjoy Your Journey



***


Enjoy your journey

To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven.

A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted.

A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up.

A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance.

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to gain, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;

A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate;
A time of war, and a time of peace.

What profit has the worker from that in which he labor?
I have seen the God-given task with which sons of men are to be occupied.
He has made everything beautiful in its time.
Also He has put eternity in their hearts,
Except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

I know that there is nothing better for them that to rejoice, and to do good in their lives, and also that every man should eat and enjoy the good of all his labor – it is the gift of God.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-13 (NKJV)

From the booklet: Enjoy Your Journey By
Dr. Elyn E. Waller.

  1. "The JOURNEY is the 'thing' NOT the end of the road; travel too fast and you'll miss what you are travelling for." -Nakalimutan ko kung sinong nagsabi nito.

    Nakakapukaw-sigla, lalo na ngayong Lunes ng umaga, itong iyong post Mark! o",) Salamat.

  6. "We have to enjoy the gift of life and learn to be contented with what we have while working towards what we want. A problem is part of life and is a test. We should be strong and learn how we can answer it or solve it. If you can pass this test, SUCCESS will not be far away."

    AMEN! hehehe....

    A time to miss somebody,
    A time to have somebody.

    Truly, in the grand scheme of things, it's never about the destination, it's the journey that matters... =)

  8. Great post!
    Nice verse Eccelesiastes is one of my fave book in the Bible!

    As for those people I guess they've given up their battle which is not theirs. Kung alam lang nilang God is in control of everything... Di naman tayo bibigyan ng Diyos ng mabigat na problema kuing di natin kaya, tama ba?

    God is more than willing and able to give us everything, in His perfect time. We'll just have to learn His ways.

    Thumbs up ako sa post mo..
    cheers Marco!
    God bless you and your health.
    Feeling much better now?

  9. Journey... everyone of us possess this and it depends what path we will cross so that it would be an enriching choice. Be it a journey less travelled or the most visited, it does not matter anymore. What is important are the wisdom incurred.

    But along the way there are the "life sweeteners" and they are important elements in reaching the journey. And I certain that along the line there is "Somebody" who would never fail to surprise us, as long as we would anchor our ship to Him...He never punish, He just impart lessons....

  11. Hi! nice post! People have different ways to handle their lives. Prang mabigat sa kanila, when in reality simple struggles lang naman talaga. But if you have God, mas madali maintindihan ang nangyayare.

    Hi Dylan… I think I’m ok naman… 

    Yup, tama ka… bibigyan Niya tayo ng problem because He knows that we can make it… minsan nga lang para gigive up na tayo dahil sa bigat na pasahin pero… He still in our side… guiding us!

    MOMENTS:
    Hey, bumisita kang muli….  salamat!

    Life is a journey… I am reading a booklet of Enjoy Your Journey by Dr. Alyn E. Waller… it is a nice booklet… di ko pa natapos… it is talking about our journey of life!

    CHRISTIAN:
    Not necessarily naman na magsimba palagi…. As long as God is in your heart… oks na siguro yon… Hehehe…may iba nga dyan… laging nagsisimba pero masama pa rin ang ugali… tama ako di ba? 

    SUPER G:
    Masarap nga maglakbay kung may kasama ka… pero bawat paglalakbay natin ay isa lang ang hindi mang-iiwan… walang iba kundi SIYA…. Si God!
