Rethink: The Seasons of LifeEcclesiastes 3Rethink series, part fourPASTOR MARTY GRUBBS [@MARTYGRUBBS]
[@CROSSINGSOKC]
“When I look back on my life nowadays, what strikes me most forcibly about it is that what seemed at the time most significant and seductive seems now most futile and absurd.” — Malcolm Muggeridge
“There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1
Seasons in life tend to change in three ways:
1. ______________________________________________________________________________________________
2. ______________________________________________________________________________________________
3. _______________________________________________________________________________________________
Preparing for the changing seasons. . .
1. ___________________________________________________________________
“Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.” — Psalm 139:23-24
2. ___________________________________________________________________
“You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength, and all your mind. And, love your neighbor as yourself.” — Luke 10:27
“Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.” — Colossians 3:13
3. ___________________________________________________________________
““. . . so the borrower is servant to the lender.’” — Proverbs 22:7
“Owe nothing to anyone-except for your obligation to love one another.” — Romans 13:8
“But those who won’t care for their relatives, especially those in their own household, have denied the true faith. Such people are worse than unbelievers.” — 1 Timothy 5:8
4. ___________________________________________________________________________________________“God has made everything beautiful for its time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.” — Ecclesiastes 3:11
“Here is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey His command, for His it the duty of every person.” — Ecclesiastes 12:13
