(Eccl 3:1 NKJV) To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:
We all understand seasons when it comes to the time of year. Natural seasons are easy to see as they come and they go.
Seasons in our lives are a little different. Sometimes they are harder to discern and understand. One thing is for sure, though, life is a continuing parade of changing seasons and the better we understand that, the easier it becomes to move from one season into another.
God is always faithful to give us signs when a new season is approaching. As we draw closer to Him we will begin to know what to look for.
Sometimes it’s something as simple as a feeling of discontent or an understanding that we no longer have grace for something that we have been doing for a time. Other times it’s not that easy and we need to be acutely aware of what the Spirit of God is telling us in more subtle ways.
We can always be sure, no matter what season of our life that we’re in, that trying to stay in an old season when we’re supposed to be transitioning into a new one can be very harmful to us and those around us.
So let’s learn to discern the seasons in our lives and then learn how to make those seasonal transitions as smoothly as we can, with God’s leading.
