It feels like a new season. I can smell it in the air and feel it stirring in my soul. The Everlasting One breathes His breath of life into me with His never-ending Love and stirs my heart. Change is coming. You can feel it in the air. Just the way I know Autumn is coming, although nature shows no sign of it yet. There is a season of everything in life. Life is an ever changing and growing journey.
And I know as I walk through the seasons of my life, my Savior will be beside me. He holds my hand as I walk through the orange leaves, frail snowflakes, young shoots, and the full blooming flowers of life with his pierced feet walking alongside mine. There is a new season of life, but I do not have to enter it alone. My Savior will tenderly mold me through these seasons, until I go to be with him in all His glory. This is a new Season: and I am not alone.
"There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born
and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill
and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep
and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter
stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search
and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear
and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love
and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace."
~Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
