Dry Seasons

I love “The Flash”…..😂

I know that’s weird, but if you watch the Tv series you would understand this.

You know those enchanting times when Berry Allen (sshh😷 don’t tell anyone, that’s the Flash’s alias😉) zooms through the city saving people and doing those other many fascinating things. Then those times when his friends are doing all the experiments and creating things while he just stands and watches them, (ok not stand), more of pacing as fast as you can follow….(continued in the last paragraph 😁)….

There are times in your life that everything just stops moving, not just that you are immobile but everything happening around you just stops happening and you don’t understand why but it feels like God has forgotten about you. 

At this point you may say or think..”I know God never forgets about me”, lol, I’m glad you know that but do you truly believe that? Do you act like you believe it?
When all your friends are getting married, or graduating, or starting businesses (even being a baby mama is now an achievement for most), and you look at yourself and nothing seems to be happening for you, do you still know deep down that God isn’t just watching you, He is actively working in your life? 

Yes yes yes

Someone is saying or thinking right now, most of my mates are also dead, sick, invalid, unemployed, uneducated and I’m alive and well….. I am also so glad you are thinking of that but that doesn’t matter to the person who is frustrated, or angry or sad, depressed.

 No no no…

You know what they want to hear?

Their turn is coming, they are about to move, something great is going to happen to them soon…

That is also very very true and I want you to dwell seriously on that….

But…. 

I also want you to thank God for this dry season, enjoy this season, be glad for this season…why you may ask? 

Because for there to be a rainy season, there has to be a dry season; for there to be light, darkness has exist; everything happens because something else first happened. 

You cannot be truly grateful for what you have never not had…

God allows us to experience this dry seasons because it can be a time of preparation, a time to go through tests, temptations. It can be a time to learn how to trust God, to trust His timing and to rely on Him even when you don’t feel His presence. A lot of things can happen during this season if you would just allow God. 

Don’t forget that God is never inactive in your life. Even when it looks like nothing is happening, that is when things are happening the most, that’s when battles are being fought for your life, that’s when He is setting things in place, that’s when He is preparing a table before your enemies…

….While it may look like nothing is being done because he isn’t running around and doing his “saving”, that’s when all the work is being done, what he then does at the end is to just deliver the blow to the bad guys…..(yeah, I’m that kind of girl) 😉
