“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…” Ecclesiastes 3:1

Winter days are difficult. We miss the sun and become impatient while we wait for better days to come. We forget there's a reason for the seasons of our lives and need to be reminded to trust.

God is in charge of the weather and we are in charge of accepting what He provides. Sometimes, He chooses blue-sky days of sunshine good. And, sometimes darkened days of cloudy gray fill us with despair. But, God knows the plans He has for our lives. He offers us a gift of light and allows us to use it for His glory.

Weather WON’T prepare us to embrace what’s to come. GOD will prepare us to find purpose for EACH and EVERY day. There IS reason for the seasons of our lives. He will provide strength while we wait on Him. And, He will remind us who’s in charge of ALL things. 

God will prepare us for what's to come. The sun will shine with greater reward if we patiently wait for gray-sky days to disappear. We must TRUST the One who will shine His light, even on the most difficult days of weathered doubt. 

God is near and He loves us. He will help us learn to be patient while we wait on Him. He will help us remember; He really IS working for the good in our lives. 

Dear God, Thank you for warming us in the light of Your love. Open our hearts to Your will, so we will receive the glory of Your greatness. Warm us in Your presence, so we will find strength in YOU and remember there is REASON for EACH season of our lives. Amen
