Good morning to everyone. Grace and Peace be with you.
I am not a big fan of hay fever. Just saying. I cough constantly like I smoke twelve packs a day. I sound like I have a plague when I cough. My nose is like an open faucet that will not shut off. My eyes always feel like there is something in them … other than my finger trying to get whatever it is out.
But … I am a big fan of Spring.
I love the freshness. I love the birds singing. I love the new smells. I love the new beginning of it all. I can watch birds fly and play through the air like toddlers with a new toy. The furry rabbits hop precisely and cautiously. The ADHDOST squirrels scurry about like they have had way too much coffee. Periodically, at the shed, the groundhog will poke his grumpy head up to see what all the commotion is about.
This Spring has been a lion spring for sure. The old saying is in like a lion and out like a lamb … well, the lion continues to roar his wind daily, stirring up all the smells and flavors that I love and hate. I love for the newness and hate the hay fever flare-ups.
When God gives me a new assignment, I love the newness of it. The challenge. The fright of it because He thinks this is in my wheelhouse. Eyes wide open and heart full of joy and anticipation. Then the hay fever hits. The eye irritation when I see something not work. The congestion when everything I try seems to fail. The headaches from all the negativity and doubt surrounding the task. It is when I start to cough like a twelve-pack smoker that God steps in and reassures me that all the hay fever symptoms are from the enemy. He is stirring things up to get me to stay in my house away from the world and planting seeds.
We all go through seasons in our lives. Some run smoothly. Some not so much. Then some are a mix. The crux of it all is that each of our seasons is purposeful. There is a reason that you are in the season that you are in. Spring brings new life. Summer blooms and grows that new life. Autumn harvests that new life. Winter prepares us for the Spring that is right around the corner with rest and restoration of our ground.
What season are you in? Go to Him today and discuss the season you are walking through. Sit on His lap, lean your head on His chest. Hear His heartbeat and drown out the noise of the world. If the world roars like a lion, seek the peace of the lamb.
Be blessed.
***But thanks be to God! He gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. –1 Corinthians 15:57
