The Beauty of Fall
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.—Isaiah 40:8 (NIV)
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. For those who lived in a land of deep shadows—light! sunbursts of light!—Isaiah 9:2 (MSG)
Take in the beauty of this time of year—be mindful of the glorious light—and keep it in your heart for times when you feel as if you are walking in the dark. Know that it is because of faith that you can always walk in the light. Because of faith, your light can help others out of their own darkness.
Heavenly Father, help me shine Your glorious light on those around me.
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)
