Ecclesiastes 3 is full of seasonal proclamations. There is even a song by ‘The Byrds’ with some lyrics from these scriptures. (Sorry if you can’t get that song out of your head now)😆.Ecclesiastes 3:5 in this chapter says “there is a time to cast stones and a time to gather them”.This is a contrast- you are either casting, or you are gathering.You don’t need them… or you do.Jesus was called the ‘Chief Cornerstone’- Acts 4:11; Ephesians 2:20; 1 Peter 2:6-7Over the last 3 years, we have been in a season of casting stones, throwing out the things we know aren’t useful for our mission. It’s been a looooong and somewhat painful process.And now, friends, we are entering a season of gathering stones. We have went back to the beginning- to our Cornerstone, Jesus. And it’s time to rebuild.It’s time to gather stones.Don’t worry about how long it will take to build, or where you will find your stones. God directs your path and will lead you to each stone- one at a time.
