March 30

March 30, 1973, my best-friend, partner in life, co-worker in ministry and the father of my children was born. What a blessed day!

March 30, 2010 my Uncle Bob, the oldest sibling (late 50's) of my mother's 7 brothers and sisters passed away from pancreatic cancer. What a sad day!

Ecclesiastes 3 (NIV)

1There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
2a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
6a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
