Life is much like the four different seasons we are so privileged to experience during each year. Most of us have a favorite season or we tend to look forward to certain parts of one verses another. I, for one, love Spring and Fall…that crisp cool air is just amazing.

I’ve personally been through a lot this year so far and to be perfectly transparent with you all, I’m just plain beat. God has brought me through I swear four full seasons in a short time frame. With feeling called out of my youth pastor position in early April, I wasn’t sure what was going on. Was I just packing up and seeking ministry positions back home in the North? That wasn’t what God had in the plans. The season He was moving me to was one that I never thought I’d experience this fast in life or ever really.

I was completely broken, ripped to pieces, not sure what I was to do. Thanks to good friends in ministry, George, Kevin, and others they encouraged me in the brokenness to turn to the Lord, the only one who could make things better. The season I was in was all about Faith. A test of all tests, one that I had not studied for and was not supposed to study for.

Here I am months after, a mere Bike salesmen and minor repair guy, making a retail wage, living paycheck to paycheck but yet blown away every week when the bank has more money than we really should have. Bills being paid and the Lord just preparing my wife and I for the next season.

As I process more and more each day in this season of Faith, I’m amazed at what a fantastic God we have watching our backs and guiding us each step of the way. I would have been so lost at this point if I had not just given it all up to the Lord.

I write all of this to ask this, a simple question but yet hard to answer…

What season of life are you in?
