Gregory of Nyssa, on Eccl 3:6

Gregory of Nyssa · c. A.D. 335–395
Eccl 3:6 · Douay-Rheims
“A time to get, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a time to cast away.”
On this verse:
“Do you wish to learn the opportune time for seeking the Lord? Let me briefly state that your entire life is the only time to carry this out. Seeking the Lord is not defined by limit or time; rather, the truly opportune time for this consists in never putting an end to our search.”
