Spring is in the air. I know this because of my constant sneezing.
As one season prepares its exit to make way for the next, I get somewhat left of my center and the daily grind becomes more challenging until things balance out. In the past few years, I have become hyper-intuitive to these changes. I am growing equally sensitive to the energetic shifts in my own life. The way I experienced this week is indicative of this revelation.
"If winter comes, can spring be far behind?" ~ Percy Bysshe Shelley
When I begin to feel this way, focus on gratitude clears my chakra points enabling the out flow and in pouring of universal energy in a more even fashion. Instead of wrestling against the unsteadiness, opening to it allows the old season to clear out making room for the new. As the old soil is overturned, new seed is planted and I am empowered to bear more fruit in the purposes for which God has appointed.
Each season presents its unique challenges. I have chosen to be grateful for each, looking upon it as a time of pruning with an ever increasing opportunity for inner growing. By faith, I am certain of the Creator's presence in every circumstance.
Are you sensitive to the change of seasons in your life?
Is your inner soil currently being overturned?
Can you begin to look upon each challenge through the eyes of gratitude?
