There are four season in the year. In Florida, where I currently live, the season are here too but not like in New Hampshire where I'm from. Florida has HEAT. I remember visiting my parents back in the 90s at their winter home in Wachula around Thanksgiving. We already had snow before our drive south. As we hit Virginia and North Carolina it was apparent we were no longer in the frozen tundra. My parent's mobile home had two bedrooms. It wasn't big enough for us and our two sons. They did, however, have a pop-up trailer under the carport, so it was fine. To stay in a pop-up in Northern New England in late November mas near impossible. You would begin to shiver in about 5 minutes. Nights would reach a low of 0°-20°F. But not so in Florida. After a great Thanksgiving feast we went shopping at the local Walmart. They no longer stay open on Thanksgiving. As I walked into the store I was hit with culture shock. The store was in festive colors and lighting for Christmas but one thing was very different to me. The AC was running. Yikes.
Seasons are relative here in Florida to someone like me from New Hampshire. To us it's always summer. February to early April is just less humid.
Seasons also occur in our lives. At times we are in a season of plenty. Other times we are in a season of need. Either way for us who are Christ-Followers, God remains the same, loving, caring, burden bearing Almighty God! At times of plenty it all flows over but in times of need things are dry and sparce. Matt and Beth Redman are worship leaders from England. They wrote that great song "Blessed Be the Name of the Lord". Listen to it again. There's a desert place. That's the needy season. Etc.
Whatever season you find yourself be assured you keep Blessing the Name of the Lord you will experience His peace, love and grace! He will pour it out! Yes He Will!
