Ecclesiastes 3:1
"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:"
We began a new series titled; Seasons of Life. And this week we will focus on the Flavors of Fall. In all seasons; The Holy Bible we hold in our hands is a treasure trove of eyewitness accounts and testimonials to the work of our Lord in His world and in the LIVES and TIMES of His people. We need to treat it as such; "glorifying and praising God for all!"
Yesterday, in the book of Daniel, we read the words from the prophet; GOD "changeth the times and the seasons." As things change we have to recognize that God's hand is at work making things CHANGE.
Today we turn to verses that were impactful and famous since they were first written. And, then in 1959 a song "written" by Pete Seeger was released called "Turn! Turn! Turn!" The lyrics – except for the title, which is repeated throughout the song, and the final two lines – consist of the first eight verses of the third chapter of the biblical Book of Ecclesiastes.
The song became an international hit in late 1965 when it was adapted by the American folk rock group the Byrds. The single entered the U.S. chart at number 80 on October 23, 1965, before reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on December 4, 1965. And, now every hippie and pop culture mavin know these verses by heart even if they have never picked up the Holy Bible in their life.
Today's verse; "To every thing there is a SEASON, and a TIME to every purpose under the heaven:" All through our lives we are faced with different SEASONS and TIME is always changing. This is by God's design. We need to find our purpose in God's plan.
Whether it's the song by the Byrds or another, we can find inspirational songs on the subject. This is because music has had a long history of accompanying social, economic, and personal changes. With that said, the tunes in the link below are some of the best and most well-known inspirational or reflective songs about CHANGE.
