Seasons of life

This month, two of our church friends' daughters tied the knot, one on the sixth and the other at the end of the month.
It made me think of my two children.  My younger one, just started working about a month ago in Singapore, while the older one have been in the working life for more than 3 years.
We had a taste of the  "empty nest"  in mid 2011 when my daughter left home for further studies in Singapore while my son started work in late 2012.

Seasons come and go, in a continuous cycle.  Each season has its challenges and also its beauty.  The most assuring thing is that the Prince of Peace and Wonderful Counselor is with us all the way, seeing us through the seasons in our life.

Ecclesiastes 3 : 1-2  There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:  a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot. (NIV)
