Too much of anything is - well too much. For instance, did you know that summers on Uranus last for 21 years? Yep. I love Summer, but I'd have to say that after 21 years I'd be ready for Fall.
It seems like we've been wired to enjoy things in their season. When you're hungry, you want something to eat. But even if you're ravenous, once you've had enough, if you continue to eat, you're miserable in a totally different way. Pregnancy is something that can be enjoyed for a season, but once it's time for the baby to be born all you can think of is getting that bundle of joy OUT. You're ready to trade a crying baby for an enormous stomach.
We've definitely been made to live life in a rhythm of ups and downs - ebbs and flows - all leading us toward maturity and wholeness.
May God help us to ebrace all of our seasons (in their season) and recognize His heart shaping presence in each one.
