Just like the natural season’s change, so do the seasons in our lives. Each of us go through periods of life that have a certain character—a few months or a few years, good times or difficult circumstances, times of brilliant joy or periods of dark clouds. Often we say, “It’s just the season of life I’m in.” Primary school can be reflected on as a “Season” in the life of our Primary School Graduating Class of 2022.
Students started their primary school season not knowing how to write or read. Maybe only being able to count up to 10…. In a few weeks we’ll farewell the Primary Graduating Class of 2022 and we’ll be celebrating their many academic achievements which will reflect the wealth of knowledge they have gathered over the past 7 years. Our students go through many transitions as they pass from one grade to the next, but the transition from primary school to middle school is one of the more significant transitions they face. As we approach the end of the school year they are preparing for the next season in their lives.
God is with us in every season of our life. When we face the unknown, we can trust that He is in control and working out every situation for our good. The Bible tells us in Ecclesiastes 3:1, “For everything there is a season.” It also tells us in Ecclesiastes 3:11, “ God has made everything beautiful in its time.” May we put our trust in God, no matter the season we are in…. Seasons will change without fail. What are you doing to utilise each season and make the most of what God has in store for you?
