You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. John 15:14-16

THE SCRIPTURES INDICATE THAT THERE ARE SEASONS OF LIFE Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

OUR FAITH WILL BE TESTED MANY TIMES IN OUR LIVES Abraham (Hebrews 11:8-19):  Abraham obeyed when he was called.  He went to live in the land of promise.  Sarah received the power to conceive.  Abraham offered up Isaac. Moses (Hebrews 11:23-30):  Moses was hidden for three months.  He refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.  He left Egypt, not fearing the king.  He kept the Passover.  The people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land.
