The Season Has a Purpose
Scripture
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Devotional
You may miss the usefulness you once felt when people depended on your schedule, your experience, or your decisions. Yet Scripture does not say only the productive years have purpose. It says every season does. Retirement is not an accidental blank page between the important parts of your life. God may use this season to restore what the rush neglected. He may teach you how to receive care, how to enjoy His goodness without earning it, and how to bless others from a quieter center. A season changes the work of your hands, but it does not remove the purpose of your life. The God who guided you through former responsibilities is still writing meaning into this day.
Reflection
Where am I measuring this season by standards God may be asking me to release?
Prayer
God of every season, help me receive this chapter without comparing it to the last. Show me its purpose. Amen.
One Small Step Today
Name one expectation from your working years that you can release. Offer this season to God in a one-sentence prayer.
