Seasons...


Do you ever feel that you are better off today than you were yesterday but yet you are not yet exactly where you want to be? Well, if you do, it is probable that you are going through what they call "the season in between". Its hardly a pleasant place to be; its a place where you're vulnerable to sin because it is normally a season punctuated by confusion and frustration. You are tired of being where you are and you want to move on but you can't, because its not yet time for you to do that, so what do you do in the meantime?

YOU WAIT!!!!

Now thats what makes it so difficult. I dont like waiting for anything but what do you do when you have to? I wish I knew...............loooooooool. Just kidding..

The Good Book in Isaiah 40:31 states, "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint".

This basically means that if you continue to look up to the Lord for strength, wisdom and guidance, He will give you the staying power that you need during this season. Im learning that day by day.

Don't despair where ever you are; it is normal to feel lost, it is normal to feel isloated, it is normal to get angry but dont stay that way. God never promised that it would never rain but He promised that He would provide shelter when it does, so take heart and hang in there!
