THE SIGNATURE

Vivid oranges, reds and yellows, undertones of their lighter shades giving a blushing of awe. Though thoughts look back upon a juicy bowl of peaches, it is the breathless joy of autumn in my presence. God has signed his artwork in nature once again.

INHALE

Inhale the brisk autumn air and all that it brings. Even the breeze has a different feeling. It will be gone quicker than we realize, so do enjoy this beautiful seasonal gift, filled with God’s Spirit, everywhere we turn!

CHANGES

Right now, as we look out, we see trees with bare branches and wilted flowers in the gardens. Everything looks so brown, all the bright blossoms gone for another season. I much prefer to have the warmth and color surrounding me, but this is not part of the plan, living where I do. I am even sad to see people leave their brightly colored clothes behind, replacing them with the darker shades of blues, greens and browns.  Yet, we can still find glory and joy as the autumn season fades and the happenings of winter begin. It is a time where people begin to get in touch with one another once again, getting updates on their lives since this time last year. There are the fresh foods from the garden, ready to be harvested and enjoyed. Families start to gather together more, in anticipation of a season which will be filled with beautiful music, laughter, hugs and excitement.   As we read in Ecclesiastes 3:1, Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses," we continue to see how the Holy Spirit provides!
"Human beings are like leaves on a spreading tree. New growth takes the place of the fallen leaves; while some of us die, others are being born." Sirach 14: 18
