AUTUMN ROAD "A Season of Change"

We are in a new series at 7 Hills Church called "Autumn Road: A Season of Change!"  During this series, we are discovering the things that bring positive change in our lives.

The other night I was channel surfing through the abundance of stations on the TV (as I often do).  I ran across a particular program that caught my attention.  They were highlighting the story of a young man (18 yrs old or so) who weighed well over 300 lbs.  He decided that he needed to make a decision to lose the weight and get healthy.  If he didn't, his future health was in serious jeopardy.  This "decision" to get healthy resulted in him losing an unheard of 120 lbs in 110 days.  That's right...110 days!  I thought to myself, "This kid's life has been changed by a 110 day decision."  His present situation and future were changed in his "season of change".  His personal trainer's response to this amazing feat was, "He accomplished this because he didn't know that it couldn't be done!"

I began to revisit and rethink seasons of change in my life.  Times when I drew a line in the sand with a bold & clear decision that things were going to be different.  Seasons of breakthrough & promotion that forever impacted my life for the good and brought me closer to God's will and destiny.  On my journey I've learned this important lesson... never underestimate the "Power of a Season"!

As we get into this new series we want to hear your "Season of Change" story.  A time when the right decision made a lasting positive impact on your life.  You can share your story at www.7hillschurch.tv under the Buzzworthy: Storytellers section on the home page.
