Muddy Boots – Seasons

There are four seasons in a year winter, spring, summer and fall.

Each season has its pros and cons. We sometimes like one more then the other.

One thing for sure is that life also has seasons with family, friends, personal relationships and business relationships. In these seasons they don’t all stay the course. Some are lush and plentiful others are dry and barren. Each season that we travel through creates the person we are. I have notice in the seasons of life some seasons are much harder to navigate through with many scratches, bruises and scars. But we do get through the season and are better for it.

The season that I am traveling through right now is one of those hard seasons. I have really good days and I have hard days. But, I know that when I get through this season should the Lord tarry I will be a better person.

I find the family challenges harder on my heart. It’s not easy to balance everything and keep a level balance thought process through it all. But I am slowly working through them with God’s help.

I have an amazing loving and supportive husband and I find he says words of wisdom that really guide be through. I am grateful to God for that.

Although I don’t understand why this season with family is so difficult and why it is going on for so long. I guess there are some qualities of character that God is working on. I find the drought is hard to accept at times but if I trust the almighty he will fill the voids in my heart of hearts. So I guess if we continue to hunger and thirst for righteousness God draws us close.

Kind of a deep post but sometimes we neglect to share that we go through struggles. Being able to be vulnerable not needy or insecure or looking for attention just being real. I don’t say what I did above because I’m looking for someone to feel sorry for me I say it so that if anyone else is going through a rough spell they know they are not alone.

Stay strong, lean on God for his love and understanding and peace. Read the word and talk with him daily.
