Fall & Harvest :-)

Have a great Day! Fall is upon us here in the Midwest (I know everywhere really) and the change of colors is just awesome! I miss the Rocky Mountains every year around this time but I will always enjoy where the Lord allows these eyes to see him and his wonders!

Wow it is always amazing to me what God does and how the season is continually changing! The seasons colors, the ages of time in every aspect of Life - His creation. I miss my dear friends who are miles away and I enjoy the ones I am able to be with now. I think of the girls and how they give me pleasure. I enjoy the moments my sweet love and I get to share with each passing moment to etch it upon my heart and my memory. I love the crisp cool air when it is brisk and yet I love it when I lift my chin and feel the faint breeze blow across my face and the other moments it blows my dark auburn hair around my face. Winter used to be my favorite season of all times because of growing up in the Rockies and LOVING SNOW however as time goes by I enjoy them all more each year. Always ready for the newness of each season as I live it and await the excitement of another day to breathe, the Lord willing, before return home to Heaven permanently.

This year 16 years ago I remember awaiting the elections of Nov and a special little girls taking her first steps, wow that was amazing and exciting and now her steps are taking her in many other directions. Where her future will take her, how to prepare and so forth. Who would have ever thought that 21 years ago Kent and I would be embarking on a fall with many new memories that would be so found?
Seasons of Fall; the rich colors of reds, oranges, yellows, golds, browns and faint splashes of green kindle in my heart the warmth of changes through the years and how new life will come. :-) Now because of my friends walk to submit her life last week. two others have decided to follow and be obedient to Christ and yield their lives because her obedience caused them to say - I too want Jesus Christ to be my Lord and Savior, I no longer want to wait. Three new lives on a day of a fall will turn over a new "leaf" by dying to themselves and become a new creation! I love IT!!!!! All in the middle of "HARVEST" season.

Remember, ". . . the Harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. . " (Mt 9:37 & Gospels) This year it has been a FULL harvest and for that I love seeing it in the newness that comes with FALL & HARVEST here in MO Town USA! Bring on the Harvest it warms my soul deeply and kindles the fresh breeze I LOVE!!!! :-)
