How You Live: A 5-Day Reading Plan

DAY 1 OF 5

DAY ONE: Through the Seasons of Life 

Hello, Friend.     

No matter the situation, experience, or transition we go through in life, one thing is certain: we all learn lessons along the way. Seasons change, and hopefully, as we grow and learn, we change with them.

For you, perhaps the season right now is one of beginnings—a new job, a new school, a new baby, or a new home might be on the horizon. Or, maybe your current season is one of reflection, as you think about your marriage, your parenting, your struggles, your work, or your friendships. Perhaps, instead, it’s a period of endings you find yourself in—soaking up the final days with a child about to head to college, closing the chapter to a job you’ve had for years, or saying good-bye to a beloved community as you move to another city. 

Now, we don’t pretend to have all the wisdom or knowledge or answers in the world. There’s no way we could. Truth be told, we’ve gotten life wrong a lot more times than we’ve gotten it right! But through it all—the ups and the downs, the seasons on the road and at home, the failures and the successes—God has taught us some things along the way, and we can’t thank Him enough for it.

As you read through this plan, our prayer is this: that you’d look beyond the lessons we’ve learned in various seasons of life, toward the One who taught them to us. No matter what you face, no matter who you might be trying to walk beside right now as they brave the next few steps in their journey, no matter what the particular season of life may be, God will meet you, keep you, and teach you. Whether you learn it the hard way or the easy way, He will always be exactly what you need.     

READ 

Psalm 121:7-8

Ecclesiastes 3:1-11

PRAY 

Lord God, help me to look beyond my circumstances to see you. Meet me where I am, keep me focused on you, and teach me exactly what I need to learn today. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
