A Season of Change

The other day I was driving towards Stafford on I-95 and noticed how the trees and leaves were changing. It was an awesome sight to see the different colors blend. Just a couple of months ago, we were looking at the same trees and leaves and they were all pretty and green. However, there was a shift in the weather, which caused the change in colors to occur. Many times, we experience “temperature changes” in our lives; we encounter the same changes that the leaves encounter. Some of you, like me, will go through a season of trials and tribulations; some will encounter a season pain and suffering; some will experience a season of ups-and-downs; and others a season of peace, joy, and happiness. The amazing thing about seasons is the fact that the season inevitable changes. The season is here but only for a short period of time.

I have discovered through all my seasons -- whatever they may be – that I will not allow any season to derail my connection to God. To be quite honest, I have determined those seasons are necessary in order for me to move forward in the things of God. All changes are relevant in our lives because they display our character. We find out what we are really made of and how to make the necessary adjustments to stay on course. To those that are currently in a season of change, remember God has your back! No matter how it looks, I am telling you that God will change you for the better. Even if you don’t feel loved, He loves you… even with all the stuff and baggage you carry he wants you to know that your change is coming.

Kneeling In Order To Stand,

Pastor Ron
