Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

“1 To everything there is a season,
      A time for every purpose under heaven: 
       2 A time to be born, 
And a time to die; 
      A time to plant, 
And a time to pluck what is planted; 
       3 A time to kill, 
And a time to heal; 
      A time to break down, 
And a time to build up; 
       4 A time to weep, 
And a time to laugh; 
      A time to mourn, 
And a time to dance; 
       5 A time to cast away stones, 
And a time to gather stones; 
      A time to embrace, 
And a time to refrain from embracing; 
       6 A time to gain, 
And a time to lose; 
      A time to keep, 
And a time to throw away; 
       7 A time to tear, 
And a time to sew; 
      A time to keep silence, 
And a time to speak; 
       8 A time to love, 
And a time to hate; 
      A time of war, 
And a time of peace.”

This is one of the most famous Bible verses about death. It reminds us that there is a season for everything and death is one of the seasons of life. It is not a fun season, that is for sure, but it is a normal season. It is not because of some vendetta against you or the one who passed, but it is just part of life.
