Seasons

Last week I got a letter from my sister. She wrote what her, almost 8-year-old said about her favorite seasons. I will sum it up here. 

Her favorite seasons are winter, spring and summer. When asked why, this is what she replied. I like skating, sledding and making snowballs in the winter. In summer I like to swim and in spring I like the flowers. Then she added that she likes fall, too, because she likes jumping in the leaves. 

She found something good in every season! I felt rebuked! How often all I can see are the hard, difficult things, the things I don't like. 

Seasons come and seasons go, not only in the natural, but in the journey of our lives. Some are filled with sunshine and flowers, others feel dark and lonely and we wish they would pass quickly. But in every one there is something to be learned and He is with us always. 

Whatever the season you are in, may it be seasoned with Him!
