Embrace Change


Embrace Change: Move Forward 
There is an opportune time to do things, a right time for everything on the earth; God made everything beautiful in itself and in its time. (Ecclesiastes 3:1,11). 
My troubles turned out all for the best- they forced me to learn from Your textbook. Truth from Your mouth means more to me than striking it rich in a gold mine. (Psalm 119:71,72MSG)
Characteristics of Seasons:
Spring: Roots mature during rainy season producing growth of vegetation and beautiful flowering trees and plants.  
Summer- Earth points toward the sun making the earth hot with long days and short nights. Certain plants can thrive in the heat: perennials, geraniums, hydrangea, impatiens....
Fall: Transition season from summer to winter. Green Leaves change to brilliant colors as a result of transformation in leaf pigments making leaves turn various colors.
Winter: Earth points away from the sun causing the weather to be cooler, days shorter and nights longer. Dormant period for plants; nutrients are stored in the roots and stems in preparation for rigorous growth in spring.
Embrace Change: Move Forward into Uncharted Territory 
In Every Season, to some extent, you are changed and given an opportunity to begin again from a new position and perspective.   You don't choose the season, nor can you change your past. However, you can choose your response to changing times and seasons. The response is determined, to a great degree, by your positional standing and alignment with God’s timing.  Change is inevitable but growth is optional; therefore, You can choose to grow and see beauty in every season.  #EndureChangeProcess! #MoveWithGod #StayinStep 
You can choose to cross over into a new place of favor, although challenging situations seem to increase.  Remain confident and courageous because God promises to be with you every step of the way. Don't despise small things; success and significance are found in small things.  Life is a journey of discovering purpose, beliefs that are painted with seasons of pain, struggles, sorrow, grief, twists, turns-all of which present an opportunity to choose your response. Important Nuggets: Enjoy Every Season; however, not without fighting the good fight of faith (1Tim. 6:12)! Appreciate/Reflect Upon A Collage of Victories! Learn to Wait Well! Waiting is an excellent teacher. Timing is Everything! Life's journey presents many opportunities to learn valuable lessons in every season; even-though, there could be times in which many challenges, changes, twists or turns cause you to grapple with harsh realities of grief and disappointments. In any case, there is beauty and purpose in every season; as people of faith, you have a sure and steadfast anchor of hope in Christ.  You are at a turning point and with this in mind, lessons on building a bridge of love and unity will help carry you across troubled waters or to weather strong winds of adversities in this time. There are many turning points along the journey which calls for change in your perspective concerning current realities.  No matter the situation, you can arise from dark places of trouble, enjoy your journey and begin again in Christ! Make Your Time Meaningful! Focus, Follow God's Plan! Flow! Rate multiplied by time=Distance  1. Repent/Change Your Mind. 2. Choose to live in the moment; Don't get stuck in the past or be anxious about the future. 3. Manage feelings and thoughts about experiences. Remember avoid making decisions when:  HALT (hungry, angry, lonely, tired) 4. Change what comes out of your mouth. Declare promises of God. Pray His word, Give thanks in every season. 5. Trust/Obey/Worship Continually! 6.  Believe that all things are working for your good. 7. Stand boldly by faith on Christ, the solid rock; all other ground is sinking sand.
