As we step into a new year, we're often bombarded with messages about ambitious resolutions, hustle culture, and the pressure to achieve more. But what if God is inviting us into something entirely different? This message explores the profound truth found in Ecclesiastes 3—that there is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. Rather than viewing God as a demanding CEO pushing us toward productivity quotas, we're invited to see Him as a wise farmer who understands seasons intimately. Just as a farmer doesn't try to harvest in spring or rush the growing process, God orchestrates seasons in our lives with perfect timing. We're challenged to embrace the process over the product, to plant small seeds faithfully even when we can't see immediate results, and to trust that a waiting season is never a wasted season. The fruitfulness is God's responsibility; our faithfulness is ours. Whether we're in a season of planting, waiting, or even what feels like winter's barrenness, God is working beneath the surface. This perspective shift frees us from the exhausting cycle of constant achievement and invites us into a deeper trust—knowing that even when we're flying through turbulent clouds, the sun is still shining above. The seasons change, but Jesus still reigns, and there are far greater things ahead than anything we leave behind.
