--------------------------
Here is a marvelous prediction: Even though this lesson is being written nearly fifteen months before you will read it, I guarantee that on April 30 in Mitchell, South Dakota, the sun will be shining, the grass will be a rich new green, the trees will be budding and flowering, and the glorious fresh fragrance of true spring will be filling the air. I wish you could join me; we could go on a picnic.
The reason I know it will be/is true is because this is the season when that weather happens (just as January 5 is 20 below, icy, with a cutting north wind). The weather cannot help itself. After a long winter in the northland, spring is gorgeous and lingering in its invitation to come outside and enjoy all that the earth has to offer.
You know seasons as well. Even if you live in an area that never sees the “white stuff,” you can tell when it is winter or summer. Signs and nuances of life exist that alert us to the changes that naturally occur. Everything has a season—even human beings. The seasons of our lives are just as important as those of the earth. In our Bible Lesson we are invited to see those seasons and changes as part of God’s time, as well as our own.
