When You Can't Control the Season

Ecclesiastes 3 tells us there is a time for everything—a time to laugh and a time to weep, a time to build and a time to tear down. We may understand that life comes in seasons, but we still struggle when we cannot control which season we are in or how long it will last.

In Week 2 of Chasing the Wind, Steven Bruce explores what Ecclesiastes teaches us about control, uncertainty, enjoyment, and trusting God when we cannot see the whole story.

BIG IDEA:
When you can’t control the season, trust God with the story.

In this message:

• Why even good things can become harmful in the wrong season
• Why we struggle to release control
• What it means to receive life as a gift from God
• How to remain faithful in a season you did not choose
• Why Jesus gives us a reason to trust God with an uncertain future

We do not get to decide every season, but we can decide how we will live in the time we have been given. We can receive God’s gifts, do the good that is in front of us, and entrust the outcome to Him.
