We are called to trust God who sovereignly appoints the seasons and who makes
everything beautiful in its own time.

- We are not anomalies.
- We can’t beat God’s wisdom.
- God makes everything beautiful in it’s time.

James 1:2-3
2 Consider it a great joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you experience various trials, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

Romans 12:1-2
1 Therefore, brothers and sisters, in view of the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your true worship. 2 Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.


Proverbs 13:10
10 Arrogance leads to nothing but strife, but wisdom is gained by those who take advice.

Diagnostic Questions
Have you slowed down to observe the season that you are in, or are you just reacting? Do you know the times?
Are you taking your responsibility towards your friends and family seriously enough where you recognize that there are seasons that have been appointed by God and they need wise, thoughtful counsel? They don’t need not quick, trite answers, and simple formulas like Job’s friends?
