Greetings from the long-lost blogger who hasn't blogged in quite some time! Just wanted to comment on this lovely time of year, most definitely my favorite. There's just something about the scent of fall, and how the leaves start to change. The excitement of thinking how Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner. Remembering how me and Trina used to go for walks down one lane roads way out in the country and feel the cool wind blowing on our necks. But somehow we didn't seem to feel the cold walking hand in hand. It's still like that for us, by the way:)
I guess for me, Autumn is a time of reflection. This year seems to be flying by so fast, and I find myself deliberately thinking about how much the Lord has done for us, and how far He's brought us in the last few years, but especially this past year. It seems as though He's taken a few small steps of faith and blessed them tremendously. I find that I still constantly mess up and struggle with things, but God is still so faithful to me. How do you explain something like that?? Really, I don't know...God doesn't think along the same lines of rationale that we do. I believe it's nothing more than His grace, and the fact that He absolutely and truly loves us. To what magnitude He loves us, I'm not sure we can even really fathom... I mean, He created us out of dirt so that we could have a relationship with Him... we're the ONLY creatures He's created to do that, and you have to admit He's made some pretty amazing stuff! So anyways, I just write all of this to say how awesome God is and has been this year, and that He's consistantly in the business of blowing my mind!
Hope everyone in blogger land is doing well. Go out and enjoy the red and yellow leaves!
