Faithfulness throughout the Seasons of Life

The older I get the more I dislike winter. Specifically, I dislike cold and snow. Fortunately, along the front range of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains, winter brings far more clear, warm, sunny days than cold, snowy ones. Yesterday, I played golf in sunshine and warm 60-degree weather, although my golf wasn’t so hot. This morning, a few snowflakes were spitting at me as I took our dogs to the backyard. The temperature is hovering around 30 now as clouds billow across the sky. It will be cold when I drive home from Penrose tonight. The pinion pines that border both sides of Highway 115 may be decked out in snow. I can hardly wait for warm weather—and golf—to return in a few days.
Every season has its benefits, though, and each is not only a gift from God but also a reminder of His faithfulness. The seasons come and go, but God’s faithfulness remains constant. Here’s a verse to hang your hat and heart on today: “Your faithfulness continues through all generations” (Psalm 119:90a).
