DAY 135
To Everything There Is a Season
기원전 3세기경 편집 (히브리 지혜문학)
ORIGINAL
לַכֹּל זְמָן וְעֵת לְכָל־חֵפֶץ תַּחַת הַשָּׁמָיִם
📜 THE VERSE
To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.
❓ TODAY'S QUESTION
Am I straining to drag forward a time that has not yet come?
📝Reflection
I recite this verse whenever I grow impatient. There is a time to sow and a time to reap. Try to reap at planting time and you only hurt your hands. The Buddha called this impermanence; Confucius by the stream sighed, "What passes is like this." The Hebrew Preacher saw the same truth — that everything has its season. This is not resignation but wisdom. As we do not grieve that flowers fail to bloom in winter, so we need not resent our time that has not yet come. Waiting, too, is a season of life.
