Seasons!
When you hear the word seasons, what comes to your mind?
Winter? Summer? The cold days when you wrap up in thick clothes? The hot ones when the sun doesn’t seem to go away?
But seasons are more than weather.
They are the different phases of life. The slow days. The fast ones. The hard parts. The healing parts.
The moments when things fall apart and the ones when everything begins to make sense again.
A season can be quiet, like when nothing seems to be happening, yet everything inside you is changing.
It can also be noisy, when life is moving quickly and you're just trying to catch up.
Sometimes, it’s planting; doing the hard, hidden work.
Other times, it’s watering, nurturing what you’ve started.
And then there are seasons of harvest, when what you’ve waited for finally starts to show.
But let’s be honest. Not all seasons feel good.
Some are uncomfortable.
Some feel like loss. Like waiting.
Like walking in the dark and not knowing when the light will come. You know that ‘light at the end of the tunnel talk’? This is when you start murmuring and asking why the light has to be at the end of the tunnel and not at the beginning.
Seasons can be rough.
They can demand sacrifice.
They can leave you tired, wondering if it’s worth it, if you should just give up.
But the beauty of a season is this:
Keep going, even when you feel like stopping.
Keep showing up, even with shaky hands.
Keep believing, even with a tired heart.
That’s what makes it a season.
It comes. It stretches you. It teaches you.
And then, quietly, it passes.
So, when next you hear the word season, don’t only think of the weather.
Think of life. Think of the process.
Think of how far you’ve come and how much you’re growing, right where you are.
