One, two, three red and yellow leaves are all that remain on the trees before the last of the autumn splendor is gone. What a magnificent display of colour those trees have given so many, they brought so much joy and delight to their onlookers and given themselves a wealth of food stored in their roots for the new life in spring. A Sunday school teacher asked her class why the leaves change colour and a small boy said such a profound thing. He said: 'I guess they are like us, they need light to change them, like Jesus brings his light to us and we are changed.' How special it is when we can take nature and all it has to offer, into the spiritual realm and see God in it.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Anne, servant of the Lord
What joy, what delight. |
