Ecclesiastes 3:1-13 Devotional: In this devotional, we explore the reality that life moves through seasons—some joyful, some painful, some ordinary, and some sacred. God has appointed a time for everything: planting and uprooting, weeping and laughing, mourning and dancing. These aren't random; they're part of His design. Even the hard seasons have purpose. God isn't haphazardly throwing circumstances at us—He's weaving them together to make everything beautiful in its time. When you're in a difficult season, it doesn't mean God has abandoned His plan. It means He's still at work, shaping something you can't see yet. Reflection: What season are you in right now—one of growth, loss, waiting, or transition? How does it help to know that this season has purpose, even if you can't see the full picture yet? Prayer Prompt: Thank God for His sovereignty over every season of your life—the hard ones and the easy ones. Ask Him to help you trust that He is making everything beautiful in His time, even when you can't understand what He's doing. Surrender the season you're in and ask for eyes to see His purpose in it.
