Ecclesiastes 3:1,11,14
Ecclesiastes 3:1 New King James Version (NKJV)
To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven

Ecclesiastes 3:14 New King James Version (NKJV)
I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 The Message (MSG)
There’s an opportune time to do things, a right time for everything on the earth
Ecclesiastes 3:9-13 The Message (MSG)
But in the end, does it really make a difference what anyone does? I’ve had a good look at what God has given us to do—busywork, mostly. True, God made everything beautiful in itself and in its time—but he’s left us in the dark, so we can never know what God is up to, whether he’s coming or going. I’ve decided that there’s nothing better to do than go ahead and have a good time and get the most we can out of life. That’s it—eat, drink, and make the most of your job. It’s God’s gift.
Ecclesiastes 3:14 The Message (MSG)
I’ve also concluded that whatever God does, that’s the way it’s going to be, always. No addition, no subtraction. God’s done it and that’s it. That’s so we’ll quit asking questions and simply worship in holy fear.
