Seasons

I have observed through the years that most Christians have little understanding of the word 'season'. Our God is a seasonal God; He comes, He goes. His faithfulness never changes, but His seasons do!

There are seasons when the tree is green, there are seasons when it is dry, and seasons when the thing looks dead.

Does mean we are serving a God who comes and goes by whim? Or could it be, that it is only through seasons that true growth may come?

A question - do you think reflections and observations sparked by each other's posts are best posted as comments or as new blog entries in their own right?

I'd probably lean towards the latter, with the proviso that it would be a good idea to include a link back to the earlier post.

wulf - i'd agree with you and go for new blog entries - if nothing else they are easier to see.
