Bible Verse of The Day – 5-11-18

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV) 1 To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven…

I love this time of year. Here in the northern part of the USA everything starts to show its beauty again. Yes, what seemed to be so dead and lifeless is now beginning to pop out and show signs of life!

Isn’t that the way it feels and looks when we are going through some seasons in our lives? Ugly, hopeless and dead, like nothing at all is happening. Everything is still; no life or forward motion going on.

It may seem like that on the surface, just like it does with the trees, the grass, the plants and the shrubs, etc. They look like they are so far gone. Nothing is going on. But, on the inside they are really just doing their thing to get ready for the next season to come. And, oh the beauty they will bring forth.

It starts with the little tiny buds and then it just flourishes from there. It’s simply gorgeous, the changes that come!

It’s just like what God is doing in our hearts and our lives during the seasons that feel so dry, dull and dead. Just wait to see the beauty that God has in store for us!

The key is to wait for the season and be sure we don’t pop out before our time or we could damage that very beautiful thing that God is preparing for us.

Be careful how we look at things and claim them to be dead. They may be more alive than we could ever know!

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-6-18

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV) 3 To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven…

Have you ever been through a season in your life where everything seems like it’s just about perfect, and you hope it will never end?

It’s pretty safe to say that most of us have those seasons from time to time.

They’re not all that common. And most times they tend not to last too long. But when they do come, we hate to see them go. Sometimes we love those seasons so much that we try to hang onto them long after they have ended.

Doing this can cause us to miss out on what God has in store for us in the next season He has put before us.

Because we like being comfortable and familiar with things, it can sometimes be hard for us to move forward, preferring instead to stay where we know and understand what’s happening, even if it’s not always the best thing for us.

The Israelites did this when Moses led them out of Egypt. God miraculously brought them into a new season of hope and wonder. But because it was unfamiliar to them, and some aspects of it were a bit uncomfortable, they actually wanted to return to the slavery of Egypt!

Let’s be careful that we don’t do this too. It’s OK to enjoy a season, but we also need to make sure we let God lead us freely into the next season He has for us, even if it means embracing change.

God will be faithful to lead us through that next season, if we let Him.
