Autumn is my favorite season. It always has been. I love the warm colors, the cooling temperatures, and the beginning of the holiday season.
The changing of seasons prompts me to recognize the growth in my life over the course of the past season and prayerfully consider areas of opportunity for the coming season. These times of reflection are always uncomfortable for me, particularly when I feel a little stagnant as I do currently. The past few days have been emotionally taxing, but I am so thankful that God pushes me to places of discomfort in order to grow me for His purpose.
I find comfort in this passage from Job today-
21-25 “Give in to God, come to terms with him
and everything will turn out just fine.
Let him tell you what to do;
take his words to heart.
Come back to God Almighty
and he’ll rebuild your life.
Clean house of everything evil.
Relax your grip on your money
and abandon your gold-plated luxury.
God Almighty will be your treasure,
more wealth than you can imagine.
and everything will turn out just fine.
Let him tell you what to do;
take his words to heart.
Come back to God Almighty
and he’ll rebuild your life.
Clean house of everything evil.
Relax your grip on your money
and abandon your gold-plated luxury.
God Almighty will be your treasure,
more wealth than you can imagine.
(Job 22:21-25 from The Message)
