Even if your children aren’t school-age, you are very aware that this time of the year marks the end of summer and the beginning of school. Gone are relaxed, carefree days; in their place are routines and schedules. The change in seasons is welcomed by some and dreaded by others. Welcomed or not, this ebb and flow of changing seasons is right and good and necessary.

“For everything there is a season,
a time for every activity under heaven.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1

The very name “We Are Grafted In” brings with it the idea of growing together, and growth happens in seasons.

What season does God have you in today?

Perhaps your season is a season of joy; celebrating all God has done. Perhaps your current season is a season of waiting; waiting for referral or that next approval to come through. Perhaps you find yourself in a season of despair; doubt and frustration your constant friends. Whatever your current season, you can be confident God is in it with you.

The time has come for a “change in seasons” here at We Are Grafted In as well. This summer we took the time to feature past posts with our {Hitting Repeat} series. We hope it gave some of you the opportunity to enjoy some posts you may have missed along the way. But, now it is time to begin sharing new posts again!

So, welcome back to a new season of WAGI. Of course we pray that the content of our posts encourages, uplifts, and even challenges you. But even more so, we hope that you can find a sense of community here — reassurance that you are not alone. To foster a sense of community, we encourage you to take the time to leave comments if you feel so led, visit the blogs of those whose posts we feature, and reach out to fellow bloggers.

Whatever your season, may you stand firm in the promise found in Ezekiel 34:26.

“I will bless my people and their homes around my holy hill.
And in the proper season I will send the showers they need.
There will be showers of blessing.”
