Ecclesiastes 3:1 — To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven 

All too often we live in the current season of our lives as though it will last forever.  We respond to the dynamics of the circumstances, emotions and reality of that season as though it will never change.  

But the truth is that to everything there is a season, even our lives. And a purpose inside of it under heaven.  It will  benefit all of us, to embrace life with this understanding as we flow from season to season. 

Seasons are crucially imperative to our souls.  

What we experience and the purposes of each of the shifting seasons we live through, shape our story and make the gospel even more beautiful inside each of our lives.  

Seasons build our testimony to the faithfulness of God

And anyone who has lived this life, knows that there are not just four primary seasons that affect nature, but there are seasons of the soul.  Seasons that feel dry, some dark.  Seasons of battle, of storms and there are times and seasons of blessing and favor.

Today, I want to touch on one of those seasons of life.  Seasons where everything seems dry.

Psalm 63:1 — You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.
