Seasons Change
Boy does time fly! We are already nearly midway through October, nearing the end of another week. The weather in the Northeastern part of the US has finally dropped to reflect the Fall season we're so accustomed to this time of year. The leaves are changing to their warm colors. No, this isn't a weather report just the evidence that a new season has come. Like the leaves changing, and the temperature dropping there are signs in our lives that foreshadow the changing of a season. Do not ignore the signs. Whether the signs are pointing at changes in family, friends, business, employment, a new scenery, or a new home be sure that you are tapped into your surroundings and can identify that which is shifting. Like the Fall jackets, the color change to our hair, the burgundy in the air, the sweater weather we've prepared - the evidence of change is here. We make changes to our appearance to fit the environment, we must be sure we have the proper "wardrobe" for our mind, body, and soul. Cloth yourself with information. Guard your heart with the truth of God. Consult with trustworthy people. Keep yourself warm with wisdom. As we look ahead to 2020, let's be clear that there are still two more natural seasons this year - Fall (currently), and Winter (beginning December 21). While it is certainly necessary to prepare for your new year, its also necessary to embrace the seasons and possibilities this year still holds. In less than 120 days, nature has obeyed time and transformed itself from Summer to Fall, and Fall to Winter. So, if the Earth still has time to continue its natural evolution of change, aligning itself with the seasons, why do we believe we have run out of time in 2019? While we do not want to be ill-prepared for 2020, we also do not want to miss what is left in 2019. Our days have been numbered in eternity; stop putting a deadline on what shall come to past in your life, and allow time to take its time. We will miss what's for us in these last few months of 2019 by looking past the beautiful colors, the cool Fall breeze and the brisk wintry weather that cleanses the depths of the Earth's soil with snow. So you see, for everything there is indeed a season. There are reasons and there are seasons, Allow yourself time to enjoy what is left of this shift. Inhale the beauty in the warm oranges, hues of purples, soft yellows, and deep browns that accent the atmosphere. Allow the winter snow to cleanse the soil that lies within your soul. Don't rush the process, but rather learn to understand seasons. When you understand seasons, you envy no one, and you rush nothing.  Click here and here for more information on how I can help you through your metamorphosis!
