Seasons Have to Change

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. You may put another season at the beginning of how you list the seasons but we know that after Winter comes Spring, after Spring come Summer and so on. The seasons can dictate what we wear, what we plant, and often how we travel.


Over the past several weeks I have been hearing "Well, Alright" by Cee Cee Winans on the radio at least once a day. This song is not a new release, so I believe that God is sending me a message. Each time I heard the song I thought to myself, "What I am to get from this?" Then it dawned on me.


In the lyrics there is a part, of the song, that states "Seasons have to change, it won't always be this way" When I hear this I cry nearly every time. God is truly sending a message here. Just as the snow has to melt, in most states, or the leaves on a tree must fall our personal seasons must change also.


If we truly believe that God has a plan for our lives (Jeremiah 29:11) then we are assured that the seasons of financial troubles, heartache, and despair must come to past. We must be prepared for the change in the seasons. Years ago I purchased a shovel because I know at some point I have to clear the walkways. I have purchased a water hose because I know at some point my yard will need to be watered. In my garage there is a trimmer that at some point is used to keep the weeds and bushes under control.


Yet be ready! Just as seasons have to change, we also need to be equipped for the change. I am equipping myself by staying not only in the Word but in close conversation with Him. I am equipping myself by making better choices for my family and myself. I am equipping myself by holding on to His unchanging hand.


Equip yourself.......change is about to come to you and I want you to be ready.
