Change

"To everything there is a season under heaven, a time for every purpose under the heaven."  

                                                                                                                         Ecclesiastes 3:1 

There are four seasons in a year here in America- Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. Each season is different. Spring is the time of new growth. Summer is the time for prospering and strengthening. Fall is the time of change. Winter is a time to reflect good times and memories.

The most toughest season in our lives is change. Change can hurt. Change can be sad, yes very sad. But then change can also be a good thing. I believe that God allows us to experience change to show us how fleeting our lives are.  What are we doing with our lives right now?

This (my) generation is so full of social media and selfishness, and everywhere I turn somebody is always on some sort of electronic device. I'm not saying that it is wrong to have Facebook, Gmail, Instagram, Pinterest (boy that can be addicting!), etc. But the only question I have is, can I (or they) be doing something more useful in this life for Christ? You know, its not at all easy trying to get my priorities right and trying to have a real relationship with God because I end up getting sidetracked into checking messages and that endless stream of great things on Pinterest instead of increasing my knowledge of the God's word. Its a constant battle! As posted in my previous blog post, I am posting this verse again in entirety,

"For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law." Galatians 5:17-18 

Put away fleshly things and focus on what is important, ask God to help you through this. By His strength you will prevail .
