There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Is your marriage in trouble? It's just a season...it won't last...
Is your finances in trouble? It's just a season...it won't last
Are you utterly exhausted from a new baby? It's just a season...it surely won't last.
Do you have small children and they are constantly fighting with each other? It's just a season, this too shall pass.
Do you have older children that don't want to have anything to do with you? It's just a season!
Are you constantly at home with your children while your husband is at work or away? It's just a season, God says joy comes in the morning...look at the horizon for your morning!
Does God seem silent? It's just a season! Press in, pray more, read more, listen to worship music more than you ever have...the silence won't last forever if you choose to fight it!
Life is full of ups and downs, enjoy the ups to their fullest measure and pray through the downs. God sees you in this moment you're in. Reach out to Him and hang on....everything will be used for His
glory, His good. Take comfort knowing that even if He seems silent He's screaming for you and reaching for you above all the loudness in your life.

I am so excited for this, Mandy!
