Season

Spring, finally is here. What a beautiful season, by far my favorite and always has been. When winter is over and gone. It makes me think of the verse in Song of Solomon 2 where the King is speaking to His beloved, and He tells her to arise and come away with Him for the winter is over and gone and the lilies appear on the earth. Just like we are coming into a new season of weather and beauty, i can feel the Lord bringing me into a new season with Him. He is asking much of me. He wants me to go away with Him. to fall in love with Him, to be completely surrendered to HIM. I can feel Him stripping away things that would distract me from Him and what He has to give me or will give me in the future and i don't need now. and with every strip, there is a sting. But, there is nothing i would rather happen. He's making me satisfied with Him. How beautiful that is! i don't want it to be spring before it's winter, the winter makes spring so much more beautiful. The stuff He has promised to me for the future, i don't want right now. Though my flesh and Satan tell me i do, I really don't. This is the best place for me now. Just me and the Lord. He's bringing me into the desert and speaking sweetly to me with His still soft voice.
Thank you Lord for this season. I am delighted to be in hiding with You! Help me to remain with You and be content with that, Father.
Amen.
