One of my favorite bands of all time is Chicago. Not just because this is the area I grew up in, but I just love their music. Just enough rock... great vocals... and all the brass! Two of their songs are my absolute favorites but polar opposites. Are you ready? "25 or 6 to 4" with it's full on jazz band and "Colour My World" with the beautiful flute solo I got to play in high school.
But I also like the song which is the title of today's blog, "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?". That's a fitting song for what's happening later in this week. We change the clocks to go on Daylight Savings Time this Sunday, March 10th at 2:00 am.
I'm not really a big fan of DST but I understand how it can be helpful but like this year, I almost forgot about it! I usually announce it the Sunday before but this year I forgot. So here's your reminder, DON'T FORGET TO SET YOU CLOCKS BACK ONE HOUR BEFORE YOU GO TO BED ON SATURDAY NIGHT OR YOU'LL BE LATE TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY MORNING!!
But back to the question in that amazing Chicago song, "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" Here is wise King Solomon's answer:
For everything there is a season, and a time for
every matter under heaven:
a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to throw away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
See you Sunday!
