One of the hardest things to do in our human nature is to let go when God is calling us to follow Him instead of what we see. In our flesh we tend to put off what God is instructing us to do because we tend to look at what is involved in making the change. For instance, in the physical we often want to make a change in the shape that we are in but then we fail to follow through due to the effort that is required to achieve the goal. Another example of change is when God is guiding us in the spiritual realm to let go of what we see in the physical to simply trust Him and believe.
Change is something that not only affects ourselves but it has affects on others as well. Often people miss the signs within the change that is coming due to being so focused on their own objectives that they miss the signs that are right before them. Then there are those that recognize the signs but they continue to neglect them because they can’t either except what they see or they fail to understand in whom believe.
Why is that we don’t recognize the hints that God puts all around us until something drastic takes place in the change that is sure to come when we neglect what we have been given? Have you ever wondered why the people stayed in a flood plain when the water was rising? Have you ever experienced something like a small drip in a water main that eventually led to a burst? Or, have you ever been in a relationship that was eventually divided because you were too busy to see what needed to be done?
Change often comes to us in stages and it is imperative to recognize these signs to insure that we maintain the coarse that God provides. A great way to look at life is to recognize how our lives under God are to be constantly growing wherever we are. God gives us everything we have for a season to serve His will in everything we do from our jobs, our relationships, and our homes. Within this season that we are given it helps to not fight against where we are but learn to enjoy what we have for the time that has been given.
It is when we forget that our lives are only hear for a season that we often become stuck in where we are. Always know that within a season here on earth that there is no perfect climate no matter how hard we try to find and the object within a seasonal change is to help others to be prepared for what is sure to come. There is great joy when we begin to see what is taking place in the spirit of God that is guiding us to our eternal resting place.
I challenge you to not become stuck within the season that you have been given and to be alert to the signs that are all around you in order to maintain the love that we have been given in our family and friends…amen
