Oh the splendor of Fall! So majestic and bold are the colors of change brought to us each year!
My favorite time of year is Fall! I remember as a little girl, I would go into my Memaw's yard and gather the leaves that were falling and put them under a piece of paper and color over the veins! It made beautiful art and I would display them all over the house!
Fall brings on fresh hope and new beginnings.
"Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the Fall." -F. Scott Fitzgerald
Fall is particularly special for me because it gave me both of my children. Out of no coincidence have I nicknamed them "Pumpkin" and "Peanut". They love the adventures we embark on during these months.
On this first day of September, I began to reflect on my year. There has been much change happen which is not bad. Change can be difficult and we sometimes fight it but often it brings fresh perspective and motivation.
Each of my children are experiencing an element of growth right now each in their own regard. I keep reassuring them that this unfamiliar territory may be difficult but it is a necessary component of aging. Just as the leaves change color, we have to shed the old and embrace the new in whatever stage of life we are in. When we welcome the change instead of fighting it, we find the beauty in our stage. Rather than rushing through and missing the details, stop and smell the crisp spice in the air.
When Corban was 2 and he first noticed the trees changing color, he said "Mom, did you know Jesus painted the trees?" It just made my heart swell! Most often all the credit is just given to nature but without Him none of it would happen.
God gives the unique allure of seasons in our life. We call them ups and downs. The beauty is, there is always the promise of Fall; a time when anything weighing down your life can abate. Fall brings forth the beauty of a purge, when old things die and new possibilities are birthed. Allowing a spirit or life purge, gives God a window to impart fresh vision and growth.
Be vulnerable to God's hand in your life. He will never misguide you, He is a hand you can always trust.
Welcome Fall ~ We are ready for what comes next!
