Springing Out of Tough Seasons

Like it or not, hard seasons befall us all. Trials are bound to happen, and our best-laid plans crumble into ashes. Day after day ticks on into the future. We wonder how time goes by so quickly when the days seem so long and exhausting!

Never would I have dreamed that it would be a year since I posted on this blog. That was never the plan. But, plans get made and get left behind. 

We all have seasons that don't go as we hope. We must learn to, as the saying goes, dance in the rain!

This past year has been one of busy, but intentional living and healing. It has been one of transition and rest at the same time. It was much needed for my soul.

I'm happy to say that I have remained flexible for the most part, bending with the winds of change and allowing God to direct my steps. It's always nice when you see spiritual maturity in yourself, amen?

As I enter this new spring and plan the graduation and 18th birthday of my oldest son, I'm so thankful for even the wind and waves...for the storms and trials of this life. They have made me who I am and refined me by holy fire.

I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have hope of time to express "me" again! I have the desire to encourage others in their journey and difficult seasons. I'm coming back :)

God be with you in your tough seasons, and I pray this is a time that you are springing back and finding joy in new blooms of your life.

Happy Spring!
