Do you have what seems to be a hopeless situation? Are you praying for a loved one and not seeing results? Do you need God to do something in your own life? Are you struggling with a finacial, spiritual or health issue?
God is faithful. Seasons do change. He does bring good things into our life. We can hope in Him. Happiness does follow pain. Psalm 30:5 says weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. He does give us strength to endure through the hard times. Hold on to His Promises! We can put our hope and trust in Him. He will not disappoint.
Psalm 126:5-6 says Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping bearing seed for sowing shall doubtless come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him.
This promise sounds very hopeful to me. When all else fails, God will nevr fail. God sees every tear you've cried. God has good things in store for you. You will reap from your labor. We need to fix our eyes on Jesus because He is the Author and Finisher of our faith.
When our hearts are broken by sorrow, when our faith is stretched to the limit, when our cross is more than we can bear then we can rejoice. Our breakthrough is coming soon. He is faithful. As we cry out to God He will see and answer.
I always think of farmers who work so hard every day on their land not knowing what might come their way.They have to plan ahead not knowing what the next year will bring. They have to store up crops in case the next years crops fail. The farmers have different seasons. He plants in the Spring and labors tirelessly through the Summer to reap in the Fall. There is no guarantee however that his crop won't fail. Different things can destroy the "crops" in our lifes but God is always, always faithful.
I pray God comes and breathes into your spirit hope in HIS faithfulness and HIS love for you!!
God bless you with His loving presence. He is good.
Seasons Change by Ray Boltz
I see a farmer in a field at dawn
His land is crying out for rain
The years been hard
His crops are almost gone
But he is not to blame
The morning sun is climbing in the sky
I see him smiling through the tears
I wonder how can men like this survive
But he's been here for years
Seasons change
Barren fields will bloom again
Seasons change
Gentle rains will fall
Seasons change
Better days will come and then
You will find the blessing
is worth the pain
so just believe
and let the seasons change
I see a farmer in his field at dusk
with joy he brings a harvest in
The pride he feels
is in the One he trusts
And he offers thanks to Him
Hearts grown cold
May be warmed by the summer sun
Dreams you hold
May be closer than you know.
