The Beauty of Fall
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.—Isaiah 40:8 (NIV)
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!—Psalm 27:14 (ESV)
Of all the seasons, winter seems to be the one that requires the most patience. Waiting for God, praying patiently, accepting His silent answer, all of these things help strengthen your faith. If you are in a waiting season, don’t be discouraged—it is a spiritual exercise that builds your relationship with God.
Heavenly Father, just as I have faith that spring will come, I trust Your divine timing.
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)
