Have you ever had a drought season in your life? Have you ever experienced the season when you feel so exhausted with every demands that come from life, as though no grace, as though no mercy shown?
Life might not have been treating you well. One challenge and another challenge come up demanding from you. exhausting you; leaving you wonder whether this will end? And when will this end? Leaving you feeling all alone, leaving you disappointment, leaving you heartaches;
HEY,
Please remember you are not alone! Please remember and trust that God is ALWAYS on your side, He’s never on the other side!
Besides, the comfort of all is that LIFE hasn’t been treating most of us well most of the time, you aren’t alone! The challenges may appear differently to each one of us; however, we strive through difficult times, we strive to become a better person even through all this difficult times, we strive not to fall but to hold on to God, may it be just the edge of Jesus’ cloth we are holding, or just touching, but never to let go even this little that we are holding on to, because the next moment is Him saying to us, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.” Mark 5:30. Hence, please endure this, especially during times of doubts and hesitation.
Dear Friends and family,
When we are so busy and caught up with “life”, please pause for a moment and ponder: If our lives aren’s busy with those whom that we love, what life are we having? If else, please examine whether we are truly having a life? Embrace each other, support each other and love each other, as how God wants us to love, as how God wants us to care, as how God has shown how we should love – an AGAPE love. It’s not conditioned, it’s not demanding, it’s not seeking for return, but it’s unconditional, it’s sacrificial, it’s God’s kind of love.
If this is the time to tear down, the time to weep, the time to mourn, the time to scatter stones, the time to refrain, the time to throw away, the time to hate, the time to war; then the time to build, the time to laugh, the time to dance, the time to gather back the stones, the time to embrace, the time to love and the time for peace are already just around the corner!
Everyone has gone through different stages of life, and endured those with joy and with tears, with loved and with aches; and those years, those tests definitely built, toughen, and granted us the confidence that we can overcome our seasons of drought as well! God’s faithfulness over the years has assured that His faithfulness and grace which brought us through those years, is definitely still be the same for this season.
It’s a season; and a season does not mean a day, a week or a month, it lasts, lasts longer than we thought; but hey, again, season is still just a season, cause it will pass. I guess that’s why farmers hold feast and celebration end of their harvest time, because they have gone through drought which cause them to be able to embrace the joy of harvest with thanksgiving! After the thanksgiving, the celebration; it prepares us for our next drought season =) That’s life, after each time, we’ve grown wiser, stronger, without consciously realize, we are already teaching others, mentoring others, passing on our wisdom to others, building others to face their seasons in life =) Aren’t that actually beautiful as well? =D
Thus, please choose to put trust in our Almighty God that the journey will be walked victoriously, thus, ENDURE the seasons of drought, so that we will have a story to tell…
