Winter

Winter is not my favorite season. While I appreciate living in a place where all four seasons are present and distinct - I'm not a fan of winter. The chill in the air. The wet ground. And the unpredictable weather. 

Yet, even though I don't care for winter, I still know that it has a purpose. It helps the ground become prepared for spring and harvest. It calls for life to slow down and find rest - a hibernation of sorts.

​The reality is that we all have seasons of life that we would rather not go through. Times that we prefer to avoid if at all possible. But what if there was a purpose waiting to peek through - just under our discontent? What might this season of life have waiting for you?
