This is the time of year that we
see a shift in the weather. Depending on where you live, that could mean a
cold, long and brutal winter with snow and ice, cooler with only an occasional
dip in temperatures, or places many envy with warm climates and palm trees that
appear mesmerizing as they flow in the wind.
Similar to the seasons of Mother
Nature, we experience changes in our lives that collate with the drastic
changes of the weather. Some changes we
welcome with open arms because they bring about joy and happiness. Other
changes are difficult because they involve sadness, loss or unexpected shifts
in our lives.
One can only imagine how joyful it
would be if our seasons were always bountiful or we were always prepared for our
life shifts. The real truth is our lives
never stay the same. Regardless of your age, financial position, occupation or
social status, everything must change.
How do will deal with change? We
prepare ourselves. Like many cities and
states who know they are about to experience a change in climates and
conditions, they prepare for what is about to take place. There is a plan of
action to deal with possibilities that may occur from adverse weather
conditions. Even with the best of
disaster plans, people lose lives, homes, income and other meaningful
possessions. Once the storm is over and the damage is assessed, cities, towns
and communities began to pick up the pieces, rebuild and move on with their
lives.
When we experience seasons of
life, we can hold on to our faith and know that God does not change. Our faith
is our security. Even in our worst
storms, God prevails over Mother Nature. When the winter storms become
unbearable, know that the season will change, flowers will bloom and you will spring
forward into your new season.
