As we look at the changes in seasons I am often reminded of the beauty of God’s work.  He allowed the leaves to change to vibrant colors during the Fall.  He then allowed the Winter to arrive so that what needed to die could in order to make room for the new.  He gave us rainfall so that new growth could occur in the Spring.  In the Summer we are able to enjoy the fruits of His labor. 

This cycle is like our own journey of life full of changes just like the seasons.  We have times where everything in our lives seems bright and beautiful.  Then the winter of life arrives where it seems like all our hopes, dreams, and steps are put to death by challenges and circumstances.  But it is only so that new things can develop in us.  We even have times of rain fall from the tears that are shed during this time of growth.  Oh but how great it is when new wonderful things and events start to spring up in our lives.  Then we have the pleasure of seeing the fruits of all that we have been through.   We begin to feel and see the joy in each day that we are blessed to experience as the seasons of life arrive.   You must remember that there is a reason for every season and in the end it's the end enlargement will come and the beautiful artwork of God will be revealed.  “As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.” Genesis 8:22 NIV
