Sabbath Sunday: I Don’t Feel so Alone
Did you know spiritual seasons mirror the natural ones?
The next natural season is fall. A time of transition. A breaking off and eventual dying of things to bring about something better.
But before that better comes a path filled with darkness and the unknown.
What happens next?
What if I fail?
How am I going to do this?
Those are some of the questions I ask in a spiritual autumn.
When I try to find the answers on my own, it’s one giant, abysmal failure. Every time.
But when I yield to the Holy Spirit, my teacher, friend, encourager and comfort through my friendship with Christ, He gives me pieces to the puzzle. I learn the route. I receive answers. He’s abundant with provision and resources.
And even in the darkness of transition, I don’t feel so alone.
If you’re facing a change, grab hold of the hand gently calling out to you. It won’t be a yell, but a loving whisper. An invitation, not a command.
May your September be blessed!
