Seasons

Change

(noun)-the passing from one place,state,form,or phase to another

:a change of seasons

Change is consistent and ever present. 

It's always taking place in our lives.

I tend to fight change.

I like things to stay the same.

It's comfortable for me.

God is teaching me to embrace the changes He brings.

I'm often hard headed.

He's so patient.

I'm so thankful.

This picture was taken the summer before my oldest daughter got married.

It hit me as I watched them walk together, this would be the last time it was "just us"..

..my little family of 5...my 3 girls the Lord had entrusted to me for a season.

I knew this in my mind..that they were mine for only a season...

But I was about to experience this reality in my heart . this change. a big change.

That was 4 years ago...

   and a lot of change since then.

I found this frame at Dirt Cheap years ago. 

It was scratched up and had imperfections..

but that made me love it all the more.

It represents me in every sense of the word and the truth of God's promise imprinted on it is a constant reminder of what He is up to in the midst of all the change.

I keep it by my bedside.

It reminds me each day as I wake up to a new day and close my eyes to the one that has passed,

God is all about change.

Change is good.

However difficult it may be at the moment,

eventually that change becomes something beautiful.

How do I know this?

I've experienced it time and time again. 

But more importantly.....
