Seasons...come and go but each season carries its own challenges and beauties. Just as the Lord created seasons in nature, He also creates seasons in our lives. I am starting this blog so that I have a way of sharing both the challenges and beauties that come in different seasons of my life. I want to invite you to join me in my Footsteps Through the Seasons the Lord has for me. I have titled this blog Footsteps Through Seasons based on the scripture in Ecclesiastes 3.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
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 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.
This is just the first part of Ecclesiastes 3 but ever since I was about 13 the Lord has shown me so much using this little piece of scripture. The word is truly alive! I can read this passage over and over but the Lord always reveals a different facet of himself and myself through these verses. Therefore, I begin this blog with this as my springboard post. I sincerely thank you for joining me in my Footsteps Through Seasons but I encourage you to think about your very own footsteps and seasons. Where has the Lord taken you? Where is the Lord taking you? Where do you desire to go? What challenges have come to surface in your current season? What beauties have you discovered this season? Whatever season you are in right now, I am excited for you!!! For the Lord has something special He wants to reveal to us in each season!
My Prayer For Us
Creator of all seasons, Thank you for all the seasons in our lives. Thank you that you truly see us, hear us, and desire us. Creator God, please help us in the season that you have us walking in right now. Please reveal what's on your heart for us to learn and gain from our current season. May you help us overcome challenges and may you open our eyes to see the beauties in this season. Thank you for your provision Creator God. Thank you for your unconditional love and thank you for your trustworthy leadership. Amen.
I look forward to sharing this journey of my Footsteps Through Seasons with you!
