Leaves falling like the rain,
Wind softly blowing;
Crisp air that breaks the dawn
And whispers love’s refrain.
Deer feeding on the lawn,
Eagles soaring high;
Water’s clear reflection,
Tomorrow’s day undrawn.
Changing, ever changing,
Hues of gold, take flight;
Prophetic winds proclaim
Winter’s awakening.
The season’s knowing fate
Transforms once again.
With awe and fearless faith,
It fades, and God creates.
"While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease." Genesis 8:22
God creates in his timing and in His beautiful perfection. Everything continues to change and yet remain unchangeable, Seasons continue, the sun and moon come and go, and God faithfully fulfills his promises to us. We can trust Him for His promises are true.
