The Beauty of Fall
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.—Isaiah 40:8 (NIV)
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.”—Matthew 8:10 (NIV)
During this special time of Advent, reflect on the qualities of selflessness, humility and devotion that please and amaze God. Know that great faith is found by knowing Him and turning to Him in prayer to help others.
Heavenly Father, I long to amaze You!
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.—Isaiah 40:8 (NIV)
For behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.—Song of Solomon 2:11–12 (ESV)
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.—2 Peter 3:18 (NIV)
