Springtime

Beloved,

I have come to a profound revelation about the various seasons that we experience as the earth revolves around the sun. Each season brings about distinct changes in the environment, and yields its own climate, and elements, as the intensity of the sunlight reaches the Earth's surface.

All of it is produced by cause and effect.

At times the seasons that we find ourselves in do not produce its fruit.

Winter for example, may have more rain, and fewer chills, or summer may feel like spring.

We begin to say, “Hey, it does not feel like winter, something is off.”

Yet, we are not in any position to change the temperature.

Life sometimes is like the weather, as we can become frustrated with the direction it is going in, especially when we are experiencing the springtime ambiance without its fruition.

This is usually due to us acquiring debt in the winter, instead of being still, and basking in the LORD’s glory.

Friend, the winter season is the time to die to the misdeeds of your heart, mind, and will, or to just simply allow the Holy Spirit to reveal God’s plan and purpose for the next season.

It is evident that the natural seasons that we experience are transparent in our spiritual lives, as we grow in our Faith, and gifts.

Wisdom reveals when to sow, and when to reap, when to love, and when to hate, when to hold on, and when to let go, but most importantly, the time to change.

Sometimes the LORD requires us to be silent, and immobile to make us into his masterpiece.

It’s not beneficial for us to question his method or timing of transformation. He is JUST! We have to be obedient children, and surrender to the LORD in order for the fruits of our salvation to spring forth.

As we develop our Faith, and our understanding of the Father’s heart we will become more aware of the seasons that we are in to produce Godly results.

We will no longer wrestle with our flesh, or be tossed to and fro by every wind, or storm, but remain steadfast on the ROCK (Jesus) which is our sure foundation.

I have weathered many seasons that were quite difficult, because I recognized what the LORD was doing in me, for me, and around me. My climate changed, the elements varied, but GOD’s WORD took flight to accomplish its task in due season.

It is now springtime, do you not perceive?

A simple prayer:
Father, open my heart, renew my mind and arrest my will to bring forth my springtime harvest. I see the beauty of the season as everything buds and takes form, and flight. I see my transformation, I see my climate changing, and every internal and external element hindering me from my first fruit confiscated in Jesus’ name Amen.

Isaiah 45:8 NLT
8.“Open up, O heavens, and pour out your righteousness. Let the earth open wide so salvation and righteousness can sprout up together. I, the Lord, created them. 9.“What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, ‘Stop, you’re doing it wrong!’ Does the pot exclaim, ‘How clumsy can you be?’ 10.How terrible it would be if a newborn baby said to its father, ‘Why was I born?’ or if it said to its mother, ‘Why did you make me this way?’”
