What happens:
- Solomon sees that there is a time for everything. God has a master plan within which everything happens at the correct time.
Meaning:
- God is control of everything. Those who obey Him will be rewarded, but in God's time scale. Those who do ot obey Him will be punished, but in God's time scale.
Stuff for us:
- We should take comfort and a warning from this:
- Comfort - God is in control of it. He has a plan for us and has prepared the way for us. He knows the decisions we will make and will be watching over us all the time. We need not worry because God has it all in hand.
- Warning - God works on different time scales to us. If we sin we should repent immediately because we don't know what might happen in the future, we may die in the next moment!

Whats going on
- There is a time for everything - we go through seasons
- Solomon also works out that there is sin in the world and that there will be judgement
- seems like a book where Sol is writing down thoughts bit like a diary trying to figure life and God out
For us to take away
- God answers prayers and does stuff in his time and he knows what is best for us and when
- reminder of judgement day
- there is a time for everthing and we need to ensure that we take the most of each opportunity to do what God would have us do
