The Master’s Masterpiece

      I love the changing seasons, but fall is my favorite.  There’s a crispness in the air and for me, it’s the time when I think about life in general.  When fall rolls around it’s almost as though another year has come full circle.  Days seem to be filled with beautiful colors and counted blessings.  There’s a sweet quiet peace that comes along with fall.
      Our lives are like the changing seasons.  We experience so many different things.  There are seasons of happiness, seasons of sorrow, seasons of longing, seasons of forgiveness, seasons of moving forward:  They are forever changing.  Some seasons in our lives we will undoubtedly enjoy more than others, but He has given us each one.  He has placed that season in our life for a reason and it’s up to us to praise Him through each and every one.
      I like to think of fall time as the time when the Lord picks up His paintbrush and creates a work of art with beautiful colors.  Our lives, no matter what season you might be facing, is just another example of the Master’s masterpiece.  Make Him proud of His work!

“ He changes times and seasons…”
