“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” Ecclesiastes 3:1
Seasons last but for a moment. We transition from one season to another. We see it all around us. So many things begin to change as it ushers in a new season. The amount of daylight changes, leaves turn into different colors and the weather begins to shift. All in preparation for what is to come. Each season is characterized by what it brings and what we can look forward to.
Yet, just like the four seasons that come every year, we too undergo seasons in our lives. We each have experienced a winter, spring, summer and fall season over the years. But unlike the seasons we experience throughout the year; the seasons in our lives are on a different time table. They last longer than several months and are more favorable than others.
Winter tends to be that season that you face many challenges, trials, testings and discomfort in your walk. Our Spring season is a time of setting things in order, preparation and making new declarations. Our Summer season is a time to bear fruit, to produce and advance in what God has called us to. While, our Fall season is a time of rest.
No matter the season, God has given each of us the grace to see it through, the favor to overcome, the strength to remain standing and the resources to be successful. God doesn't want us to despise our current season but to learn from it. There are valuable lessons in each one that is going to help you in your next one. Season are meant to transition you to your next level. If you fail to learn the lessons or follow instructions, you will remain in that season.
If you have been asking God how can you move forward, you need to first recognize your season. Once that is determined, ask God what is it that you need to learn or gain that will prepare me and shift me to the next season. Once you are able to settle on what God is instructing, then you will begin to see a shift in your season.
Ultimately, your season is for your growth and not for your demise. No matter how difficult or uncomfortable, God is building you and preparing you to step into your new season regardless of your environment.
