Bearing Fruit in my Winter

12:47 PM
Psalm 1:1-3
  Oh, the joys of those who do not
      follow the advice of the wicked,
      or stand around with sinners,
      or join in with mockers.
 But they delight in the law of the Lord,
      meditating on it day and night.
 They are like trees planted along the riverbank,
      bearing fruit each season.
   Their leaves never wither,
      and they prosper in all they do.
I was really touched as a read this scripture over the weekend.  I was once again reminded that just as seasons come and go year in and year out; so seasons also come and go in our lives.  And yet, when things change and the winter seasons come around, we struggle to keep our heads above the water, not even mentioning bearing fruit!  And so the question is: How do I bear fruit in the heart of winter of my life? 
We are all planted and rooted in something. Sometimes we choose to root ourselves in our partners, our work, or our friends.  But we have to be rooted on the bank of the River of Life. There we will never run out of life giving water, only there will our leaves stay green, and only in God’s river of love will be never wither  and never give up.
Habakkuk 3:19 (Amplified)
The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hinds' feet and will make me to walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]!
Your winter can turn out to be a season of great strength and spiritual growth as you have never experienced before.  If you feel that you are in a winter season right now, I pray that you will allow God to be the River that feeds your life.  Allow Him to make your step steadfast; then you too will not stand still in terror, but you will make progress, grow spiritually and bear fruit in your winter!

Much love
Stef
