Friday’s Devotion: Changing Seasons

 
Ecclesiastes 3:1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.

If you ask people what their favorite season is I think the majority would answer either fall or spring.  Fall brings brisk mornings and a relief from the hot summers. The turning leaves are beautiful and we love the smell of the first wood burning fires. Spring brings flowers and green leaves replacing the barren winter and the warmth of the sun to comfort our winter-chilled bones. There’s something about the change of seasons that speaks of hope and renewal.  Regardless of the season, our Lord always offers hope and renewal. Sometimes it’s not as evident as the changing of the seasons but God says if you seek him, he will be found.

Holy God, in the dry seasons and bleak seasons, we sometimes feel all alone. Help us to always find your presence when we seek it with our whole heart.  In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Have a blessed weekend – hope to see you at church.
Paige
