Better Times Are Yet To Come

The very first thing that you must know is that it's going to be okay.

Change can make you feel like you're loosing air to breathe, your mind fills with thoughts of torment, your heart races. Without change, we will never know what we are capable of. We will never know what else was out there.

This week, I'm speaking to myself honestly. When an end is coming to a season, it's just weird, it hurts. My season is that, at my school, there was this Bible study that was given to me to lead my junior year. It first began my sophomore year. It totally changed my life, it just seemed so great. God had given me so many ideas and vision. When it was handed down to me, there was so much expectation not only for me but for what would come of the bible study. It wasn't the same. There were so many factors that played into why I felt like the Holy Spirit was speaking to me to step away.

Jesus says that He is our lamp to our feet and light to our path. With those lights, He is guiding us with His light, truth, and love. We may feel like we are surrounded by darkness and we might be, but Jesus is with us.

How to know a season is ending.

The very first thing is that you will notice is that there are different people. With new people in a situation, they bring different things that God has given them. The atmosphere will seem odd due to the new talents and gifts of those people. Another hint that a season is ending is that some object outside of your control is present. Perhaps someone had a car wreck, maybe you unexpectedly got a job promotion. What ever it is, because of that new thing that has entered your life, old routines of life and emotions are different. Going along, to know that a season is ending, things just aren't working out like they used to. The most important factor to knowing that something is changing in your life is that you have to listen to the Holy Spirit. He is your guide and will tell you in your spirit.

What to do in the time of transition.

In this time of transition into your new season, you have to run to Jesus. Let your mind be contently filled with the truth of Jesus. A lot of times, the enemy will send fear to you, because better is yet to come! When the devil tried to tempt Jesus in the wilderness, He fought back with scripture. Keep your close Christian friends around you for support of this time. Be thankful for what blessings came from your last season, but don't mourn over it. Every season that you go through has a precise purpose and is part of a divine plan for your life! Be embracing what's to come and pray for that season. I know that sounds weird, but be praying for whatever worries you have, proclaim that blessings will be more abundantly than the last!

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
