Here is that time of year again... The trees are showing their brighter colors. The nights are cooler. The daylight hours are becoming fewer. Change is in the works. I love this time of year. It is kind of a closure and a renewal at the same time. We know the cold of winter is coming, but there are still reminders of the wonderful summer just past. The swimming pool still looks wonderfully inviting, but the water is way to cold. The yummy summer fruits and vegetables are still around, but smaller quantity and larger prices. The stores are starting to put out some Christmas decorations and warmer clothing. The TV plays both baseball and football. A great time of year. And the focus on change and growth reminds me of how unchangeable God is. He orchestrates the seasons for our benefit and joy but remains unchangeable Himself for our security and peace. The days pass. The clocks tick. The fashions change. But our God is the same yesterday, today and forever. Hallelujah.
