Topic: Understanding Your Seasons, Part 3
Devotional
Patience comes with an understanding of the seasons of our lives.
Again, we see in Genesis 8:22 that there are seasons and one of such is summer and winter. For the Israelite farmer, winter is the time of harvest (not a time of pain) while the summer time is dry with no harvest.
There are people who would have stored up a lot before the lockdown, and for them they are in their time of harvest. If you are one of those people then this is the time more than ever before to make budgets and spend wisely. Ask the Lord for guidance and use what you have stored in such a way that it suffices throughout the season.
If you also need someone to hold hands with you in a prayer of agreement albeit virtually, I’ll be thrilled to. Reach out to me using my social links below.
You are not alone!
