The Big Red Speaker -

When I was at Uni, my friend and I were house DJs. We were invited to house parties, and weddings and in one instance organised an end-of-semester club party. We called ourselves the Revolvers

When we finished Uni I kept all the equipment and once in a while, my family members would ask if could bring my speakers when there was a party in the family.

About 12 years ago my cousin asked if I could come be the DJ at her daughter’s 10th birthday party. I gladly obliged. Got there set my speakers and started playing.

I started to notice these kids were bored. They weren’t dancing! I worked harder and played all the hit songs I knew but the situation didn’t change so I called one of the kids, I asked what do you listen to? they told me, I searched for the song and played it and the kids rushed to the dance floor! So for that party, the kids started telling me what they wanted me to play.

When I left that party I realised I’d lost my Mojo! The season for the big red speaker had passed so I got rid of it!

??Ecclesiastes? ?3:1?-?8? ?NLT??

[1] For everything, there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. [2] A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. [3] A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up. [4] A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. [5] A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. [6] A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away. [7] A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. [8] A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace.

“For everything, there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven...”

In summary

Are you holding on to a season that has passed? Life is sweeter when we recognise the season we are in and make the right changes to accommodate the season. Live in season, enjoy life!
