Seasons in Life
By-Crickettt
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
"There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven— A time to be born and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted. A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear 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; A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing. A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear apart and a time to sew together; A time to keep silent and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace."

Seasons of Life
Some seasons of life are peaceful and some seasons are full of storms, but God is the author of all the seasons in our life.
Maybe you are walking in a dark place right now with hidden dangers you cannot see or with no light or relief in sight. Jesus said, "I am the Light of the world; the one who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the Light of life" (John 8:12). You may be confused about what steps to take or how to repair what is broken in your life. Jesus is calling you "TODAY" to come to Him, hear his voice, and trust Him. Don't wait until tomorrow to run to Him for help, you may not have tomorrow. "The time to Live and Trust is Now!" Your circumstances may not change immediately, but God will give you what you need to get through one moment at a time. He will guide you and give your heart peace if you will let Him. So, keep walking, keep believing even when you cannot see changes, and keep trusting that God has it all in the palm of His hands. Whether you are walking through a storm right now in your life that is tossing you violently back and forth, or in a place of peace and contentment, just know that the Light of Jesus shines through every situation. He said that His grace is sufficient enough for you. His mercy covers you in every season of your life. Stop and reflect on what He has previously done for you and remember... He never changes, He is the same yesterday, today and forever. His promises are true. He is calling you to "Come and rest My child and I will show you the way. Though you are burdened and held back by the attacks from the enemy, do not be discouraged for I Am with you. I will hold you up by My righteous right hand. Trust in Me and I will show you the way."
Jesus is calling you to step out in Faith no matter what the circumstance that lies before you may be and He will do the rest.
"A man's mind plans his way [as he journeys through life], But the Lord directs his steps and establishes them." (AMP)
No matter what dark road you are going down right now, there is nothing impossible for God. Give it all over to Him today and walk forward in His Love for you.
Today's Prayer:
Dear Father, thank You that Your love for us is unconditional. When we walk in darkness, You are there. When joy fills our heart, You are also there. We can never hide from You because You know everything. Help us to come before You, repent of our sins, and place all our trust in You. Guide us by Your Holy Spirit so, You will receive all the Glory, Honor, and Praise due Your Name. Forgive us our sins and lead us down Your path forever. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen
