Here we are in the middle of autumn, it’s a beautiful time and season with all its glorious colors and smells. Yet, we know it’s also a time of dying and preparation for the long cold winter ahead. As the colorful leaves fall to the ground, it’s not long they are trampled and turn to mulch for the earth. There are many that feel that way today, how did something so beautiful just yesterday turn into something so useless today? Remember their is a time and a season for everything, today may bring laughter and joy and a tree full of beauty and fruit; and then overnight it seems the tree is barren. Take heart! Our God does not change like the seasons, no, He said I am God and I change not, I am the same yesterday , today, and forever! He loved you yesterday, He loves you today, and He will love you tomorrow! I love to watch the leaves come down slowly wafting to the ground. They will turn and twist in many directions seemingly in slow motion, and I wonder where will it land? Most of the time it’s not where I thought! That’s the way the Lord works in our lives many times, we think wow I have everything going for me I’m in the heyday of my life I’m so blessed with all this color in my tree and I’m strong. And we forget there is another season just around the corner, a time of dying out to self and a time of preparing our hearts and spirits for where He is taking us! Yes it can be unsettling at times, not knowing where we will land, or what our next assignment will be, but be assured, He has it all worked out. He is in charge of the seasons! Enjoy this beautiful fall season, knowing that our God is with us, and He will carry us, on the wings of His love. He has you in the palm of His hand, it may seem like that leaf ,that you are falling to your death, but no, He is invisibly holding you, all the way into the next season.
