This seems to be a time of the changing of seasons here at the Ministry Church. We don’t know
where God is going, but we feel His leading strongly. Our part is to get prepared. As always, the
first step must be a genuine, heart-felt repentance as the Holy Spirit reveals our sins and
shortcomings. We must draw nearer to God.
Ecclesiastes Chapter 3 reminds us to everything there is a season. Things that are appropriate for
one season are not always needed or wanted in another season. For example, a big heavy parka
designed to keep us warm in winter is certainly not needed in the heat of the summer. Seasons
come and go in our lives. It is a wise person who knows the season he or she is in. Only the
Holy Spirit can reveal this to you, IF you ask Him.
As you face your trials and temptations, remember to trust the Lord. He always knows best. He
changes the seasons, not us. I’ve been in seasons before when I couldn’t wait for them to end, but
God was not ready, and I’m sure I was not ready. I was just being impatient. I have lived long
enough to know when a season changes, God may insist that I get out of my comfort zone and
step out in faith with Him. I must conquer my resistance and reluctance to move forward.
We thank God when He reveals His instructions to us. We want to understand what is happening.
Whatever season you may find yourself in, God is faithful. He will help you. He promises to be
with you. Don’t be afraid of the changing of the season. Embrace it. Keep your heart right. And,
answer, “Let’s go God! I’m ready! Your Will be done!”
