Have you ever felt like God was finished with you? Maybe it's just me but I know I have seasons of drought and seasons where I don't feel anything. It's been 10 days since I have blogged and that is simply because I have been in a dry desert seeking after God. I'm in a season where I can't see what's ahead at all. A season where it's time for testing and laboring rather then reaping the benefits of fruit that God brings. Honestly, it's frustrating, it at times can be depressing.
That may surprise you to hear me say but I think that is a problem in Christianity. We think if we're not in a season of bearing fruit then we're either not saved or God must be finished with using us. I am growing to realize that there is always a season for everything and no matter what season it is God is doing something with me His masterpiece.
I must trust that during my season of drought and during my season of brokenness and sadness the Lord is using it to do the things He needs to do to me so that I can do the things He planned for me long ago.
Can I encourage you today to embrace every season that you are in. Keep hanging on to the faith we have in His promise To Use everything For His glory and our good.
Today as I am in the desert I am resting in the shelter of covering He is providing for me while I continue to walk into the next season. Friends we serve a good God even when everything around us is not good. :-)
Ephesians 2:10 NLT
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
