September has arrived at last. Lord, these fall days are so beautiful here--crisp mornings, changing colors, shorter days, and colorful sunsets.
But we humans have marred and scarred your lovely creation with violence, sickness, and death. Thank you for sending your Son to pay the price for all of this, all our sins.
The past few years our world appears to be in a prolonged Autumn, moving inexorably into the death of winter. This happens in people's hearts, and in our relationships. I depicted this in a spiritual fantasy called, "When the World Grows Cold." (You can find it on Amazon or order it in any bookstore.)
As frail humans, our days here are limited. But after winter comes spring, the time of rebirth and hope. Lord, I pray that our world will someday be reborn and made new, restored and perfect again.
