"Seasons"

Evelyn Fordham Goodman

January 27, 2016

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:"

Ecclesiastes 3:1

Recently, while preparing for our cross country move from Philadelphia to Houston, I began to feel a new feeling.

It wasn't the normal grief I've experienced of saying goodbye to family, friends, and all things familiar.  Nor was it the natural excitement I've felt of charting a new path and beginning again.

This feeling was different.

It was a feeling of irritation, agitation, and restlessness. It reminded me of the familiar feeling I would often have a few weeks or days before childbirth. I would naturally begin "nesting" as my body warned, "it's time". These contraction like irritants were pushing and prompting me to pack my bags and get ready. My comfortably cozy days in the cocoon were numbered and my body was preparing for a new season.

It's amazing how God gets His creatures ready for new seasons.

In spring, animals who grew thick coats of fur for winter, begin to shed, preparing them for the warmer temperatures.

In summer, animals prepare for hibernation by eating lots of food to store fat in their bodies.

In fall, animals get sleepy and grow thicker coats preparing them for the rapidly approaching cold temperatures.

In winter, animals migrate and hibernate to stay warm during the frigid months.

Today-

Watch, listen, and feel.

Perhaps God is preparing you for a new season.

PRAYER:

Dear Father,

Thank you for the irritation, agitation, and restlessness. You are using these emotions to move me out of one season and into the next.

Help me embrace this new experience trusting you fully to supply all the needs required for this new season.

Amen

"More Grace"

January 20, 2016

"And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

2 Corinthians 12:9

1. He giveth more grace as our burdens grow greater,
   He sendeth more strength as our labors increase;
   To added afflictions He addeth His mercy,
   To multiplied trials He multiplies peace.
2. When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
   When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
   When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
   Our Father’s full giving is only begun.
3. Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
   Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
   Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;
   The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.
4. His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
   His power no boundary known unto men;
   For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
   He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.

"A Martha Moment"

Evelyn Fordham Goodman

January 13, 2016

But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”

Luke 10:41-42 (NLT)

A few years ago a dear friend came to visit from out of town.  When she arrived,  I invited her to pull up a chair in my kitchen, while I frantically worked to complete an extravagant meal in her honor. I was exhaustedly washing greens, peeling potatoes, and frying meatballs- all so she could enjoy a delightful dinner.

She seemed appreciative of the gesture, but uncomfortable with me slaving in the kitchen- all so she could have a good meal. She didn't come for an extravagant meal. She came to spend time with me. 

She wanted to sit on the couch and talk, laugh, and share stories. But instead of spending quality time with her, I was preoccupied with the task of preparing for her.

I get the feeling, Martha, in Luke 10:38-42, had a similar desire. She was hosting Jesus and needed everything to be just right. No paper plates or store bought cake for her guest. She wanted an unforgettable meal for her Master and was laboring feverishly to get it all done.

But is this what Jesus really wanted? Was He looking for a four course meal on hand-crafted china? 

Not at all...

Jesus wanted to spend time with Martha. 

And He wants to spend time with us too.

May we remember that quality time with Jesus is always more important than preparation for Jesus.

PRAYER:

Lord,

I can identify with Martha- trying so hard to prepare that I lose sight of the whole purpose- time with you.

May being in Your presence be the priority of today and everyday!

Amen.

Word Wednesday

January 6, 2015

O Lord, you have examined my heart

and know everything about me.

You know when I sit down or stand up.

 You know my thoughts even when I’m far away. You see me when I travel and when I rest at home. You know everything I do. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me,  O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
