"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." Ecclesiastes 3:1. ''So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.'' Psalms 90:12. The seasons change and you change, but the Lord abides evermore the same, and the streams of His love are as deep, as broad, and as full as ever.
Seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go but it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away. The moment in between what you once were and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place. “Those who are certain of the outcome can afford to wait and wait without anxiety.”
A Course in Miracles
Gratitude for the turning of the seasons. May we attune our hearts to their enduring message of renewal. Rather than waiting for life to simply happen, I'm choosing to run toward it with open arms, no matter what it holds. To everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven. "Nature gives to every time and season unique beauty; from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it’s just a succession of changes so soft and comfortable that we hardly notice the progress." Charles Dickens.
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. Life’s winter may feel dark and cold but it’s a chance to draw within, rest, and look forward to the newness in the seasons ahead. Every new season of your life will be an opportunity for you to learn and grow. Don’t celebrate the good without celebrating the bad because they both work together to prepare you for the next season of your life.
