SEASONAL THOUGHTS ON LIFE

Has it ever occurred to you that seasons of the year are often like the seasons of life?    You say, "What do you mean?"   If you live or have ever lived in a place where the trees change from deep green to the various colors of Fall, with reds, oranges, yellows and everything between, you know what I am saying.  I lived in New Hampshire for a while and grew up in North Carolina.  I know that the contrast of seasons is amazing and often breathtaking!

Some trees in Summer are deep green. Others, like the Japanese Maple, and other trees, show off their beauty in the Fall.

THE FRESH, GREEN SUMMER LEAVES IS MUCH LIKE THE BEGINNING OF LIFE IN OUR HUMAN EXISTENCE, LOVELY AND NEW. 

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT GOD'S CREATION!

FALL LEAVES, ROBED IN ALL THEIR BEAUTY, ARE THE BEGINNING OF CHANGE, WHEN THE LEAVES WILL FLOAT TOWARD THE EARTH AND THE COOL BREEZES BEGIN TO BLOW.  YET, THOSE LEAVES CAN BE BUNDLED TOGETHER AND USED FOR OTHER HELPFUL PURPOSES. 

THIS IS MUCH LIKE LIFE AS WE  BECOME OLDER.  THERE IS MUCH TO DO AND BEING HELPFUL TO THOSE AROUND US IS ONE WAY TO SHARE GOD'S GREAT LOVE!

WINTER WILL BECOME A TIME OF REST.  JUST AS EVENTUALLY WE WILL ALL REST FROM OUR LABORS.  LIFE HAS BEAUTY IN ALL IT'S PHASES.

MAKE THE MOST OF IT.  ENJOY EVERY SEASON. GOD MADE NATURE AND GOD MADE US. 

 

Ecclesiastes 3 tells us " FOR EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON, AND A TIME FOR EVERY MATTER UNDER HEAVEN: A TIME TO BE BORN, AND A TIME TO DIE...A TIME TO WEEP AND A TIME TO LAUGH; A TIME TO MOURN AND A TIME TO DANCE."       

 

BE CERTAIN YOU DO ALOT OF LAUGHING TODAY AND THANK GOD FOR ALL HIS BLESSINGS THIS SEASON!

BEAUTIFUL, CALM MUSIC WITH SCENES OF NATURE
