Ecclesiastes 3:6 (NKJV) 6 A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away…
The changing of seasons is very much a part of our lives. We can be on top of a mountain one day and in the valley the very next.
We all go through it. Some people just know how to keep a smile on their face, even in tragedy and loss, but they still feel the sting.
Can we maybe remember a time in our lives when everything seemed good? We had a good job, and we had a good income. We were saving money and paying cash for things. We had no debt, no payments. Just good living. Our family got along. Everything flowed nicely.
And then something came along, and it hit us hard, wiped it all out, and we stood there wondering what just happened.
Life! That’s what happened. Life is made up of seasons. And we can learn a great deal from each one.
In order to make it through this life without getting beat down, we need to look at things differently.
We are going to lose things and people in some seasons of our lives, and we are going to gain in some seasons. But no matter what season we are in, we can be content if we keep our heart and eyes on the One who keeps us content, Our Father, Lord and Provider.
He knows what season we are facing right now. He knows what we need to get through. Lean on Him. He will strengthen us.
Psalm 119:28 (NKJV) 28 My soul melts from heaviness; Strengthen me according to Your word.
