Changing Seasons





Have you looked outside? The fall colors are fabulous here! Everywhere I look I see change. From the trees, to the grass, to the animals, to the rising sun, to the children growing.

Changing from summer to fall


All things change.

Ecclesiastes 1:4-7~ Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises. The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from, there they return again.

All things change.

Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11~ There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven; He has made everything beautiful in its time. 

All things change. Except. . . God.

Malachi 3:6 ~ I the Lord do not change. 

James 1:17 ~ Every good and perfect gift is from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. 

I am so glad that God is always the same. Always sees me, always knows me, always loves me, always cares for me, always guides me, always forgives me. And, he always brings change into my life. He is changing me into a more Christ like me.

All things change.

1 Corinthians 15:51-52 ~ Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed -- in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

I am so thankful that I will change when Christ comes to take me home. I want to be found working for him, serving him, resting in him.

All things change.

Aren't you glad they do?
