“See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come; the cooing of doves is heard in our land.” Song of Songs 2:11-12 NIV
I remember being in elementary school and having to write a poem for each of the four seasons that have passed. Like seasons our spiritual life also goes thru times. My children you will pass thru winter but don’t be dismayed for after winter’s spiritual defeats comes spring. The rising sun and the emerging spring declare that the heavens will not forget nor forsake you. The warmth of the Son returns, and our heart is warmed with the song of the birds with each renewing day. Let us soak up as much of the refreshing light of spring. Let it melt the cold and hardness of our winter heart. This is the time for our soul to seek closer communion and growth with our Lord. It is the spring in which new growth is to be nurtured. For after the winter pruning of dead growth from our lives let us burst forth with the new life of the spiritual spring. Each of us must go through spiritual seasons in our life, but let now be the season of the spring, the season of renewed growth.
Let us stand and soak in the eternal warmth of the light of the Son.
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot… He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2,11
