The Lord gave me a thought today when I was listening to Him. It is December. Yet, for some reason it has been almost 80 degrees two days in a row. My window in my office is open. It doesn't make sense, and it surely wasn't expected.
I think sometimes in our lives, we expect winter to be what it is - winter. Cold, barren, lifeless. Sometimes we go through seasons in our lives where we are in a spiritual winter. We don't expect much out of ourselves or others. But sometimes, like the past two days in the weather, the Lord surprises us with a burst of life - an unexpected spring in the middle of our winter. I think we need to do more of expecting the unexpected. The Lord can (and will) surprise us, and sometimes those surprises can actually be good. It's all about faith.
