Downturn Seasons...
Marketing CustomersE-commerce is expanding at a time when our nation has slipped into an economic recession. Like any business, it is about getting ..... ...... it appears that Abraham is experiencing spiritual apparitions daily. That's not the case. Again, Abraham had seasons of boredom, frustration, carnality, disbelief, and etc.
Now how does this story of Abraham relate to us and our downturn seasons' The people of God must learn that there are be seasons of rejoicing in the Lord, and there are seasons of sheer boredom. As a minister of the church of Jesus Christ, it is important that I advise you of this. Why' So you won't come into a season of 'downturn' and think that you are out of fellowship with God. Even in an intimate relationship with another human being, there are times of miscommunication, silence, rebuilding the relationship, disagreements, duties, responsibilities, and etc. Not every experience in the intimacy is intimate. The bedroom experience is not the norm, but the highlight.
So what does the child of God do during the downturn of seasons' He or she does not allow discouragement to wreck his or her relationship with God. One must maintain, continue, and persevere. It sounds mundane, but it is true. There are seasons of downturn in one's relationship with God through Jesus Christ His Son. Remember this. God does not forsake you through the downturn seasons. In fact, He allows the downturn.
The downturn does several things. For one, it denotes a changing of one season to the next. In the downturn stay steadfast before God, and rejoice in faith that a new season is on the horizon. Secondly, it tests your faith. Can you trust God'pray to Him, serve Him, attend church or mass'even during the difficult days' Or does the downturn show you something displeasing about yourself'you serve Him only when you are happy' Thirdly, the downturn gives you the opportunity to reconnect with your humanity. Even Jesus needed time alone from the crowds. Even Jesus needed rest and proper nutrition. No matter the experience of spirituality in this life, downturns are inevitable and necessary. Do not fight against the downturns of life. Recognize them for what they are and go with the flow. Pastor T.dash ABOUT THE AUTHOR
