time for a change..

a period... a time... for everything in life there is a season. a season of joy followed by a season of sorrow. a season of trial followed by a season of ease... of victory coupled with defeat. of stagnant complacency after a time of great growth. our lives are characterized by these moments, by these seasons... and though we get caught up in the middle of life and often forget to reflect on the now... to reflect on where we're headed... on who we're becoming... i find it good to look back... to reflect on what was... so that we may with more clarity look to and see what is and is to come. i today find myself in a season of change... a time where i have no real clue as to where i'm headed or why... yes there's the plan... yes there's the vision... yes there's movement towards a goal but how that goal might change or how the path will twist and turn along the way is a mystery... a surprise... a treasure that i look forward to discovering one step at a time...

as the journey continues and goes on i ask that you take this moment to reflect... reflect upon where God has taken you this past year... how He has provided for you... how He has given and how He has taken away... take this moment to reflect on all that is and was your past so that in this season you may see with clarity the picture that is the present... to see how who you've been has shaped who you've become... that you may see with clarity the vision that is the future... to see how who you are is moving you towards who you are to be...

*more to come on my past year and the year to come...*
