Journey Through Life’s Seasons
Our journey through life has many seasons. Sometimes the seasons are celebratory, while others bring suffering. On occasion, the celebrations simultaneously occur with suffering. Regardless, our seasonal experiences of celebration and suffering are inevitable, especially as we grow older. God created us as social beings who celebrate and suffer with each other. We praise God during the celebratory seasons, while bearing one another’s burdens during the difficult times. Our journey with others through different seasons of life is guided by God. He grants us humility, gentleness, and patience to share His love with others by listening, giving a supportive hug, nodding with affirmation, or praying with someone. Through these small gestures shared during the seasons of life, we share Jesus’ love.
