6 Uplifting Prayers for Changing Seasons in Life

Change is inevitable in life. We grow older and see things differently than we did before. Friends move away. Teens graduate and go to college, often leaving home for the first time. People get married and have children. We say goodbye to loved ones who die.  Although we will all continue to experience shifts in life, we are not always ready for new seasons. These times can feel unsteady. Even if the change is positive and invites new opportunities, there can also be a sense of loss at seeing previous chapters of life end. Sometimes, the new season is not welcome at all. We long for the past but can never relive it because people, places, and circumstances are gone or have changed.  Whether we are excited or sorrowful about change, we can take our feelings to God in prayer. He wants us to talk to Him as if we were close friends. As we pray about facing new seasons in life, we can trust that He hears and cares (1 Peter 5:7).   "Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." - 1 Timothy 5:7Photo Credit: ©GettyImages/enigma_images
