Tomorrow is the first day of Autumn. I’m OK with that. Of-course it does mean I have to get used to a few new things: less daylight, cooler temps (eventually), no lawn mowing (eventually), raking leaves (yuk), and seasonal favorite pumpkin spice…in EVERYTHING! (no thank-you). OK, so maybe I’m not as OK with Autumn as I thought. (a moment of self-awareness) I think I’m beginning to understand why Autumn is the only season that has a nickname: FALL. It’s that time of year we see things fall: temperatures, leaves, daylight. It’s fall, it’s time to change, and some are unwelcome changes. Here’s the thing. Changes, welcomed and unwelcomed happen no matter the season; winter, spring, summer and yes, fall. You may be in the midst of change. It may be “falling” all around you. So instead of looking to where things land, look to this: (Isaiah 40:8) The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever. Wrap yourself today in the Word of your God.
