When the trees start to change their colors – even in Austin, TX where the average temperature is still mid 80’s – we know its autumn. Autumn is a season of change. The leaves change color because they aren’t taking in as much water and eventually they die and fall off the tree. The tree isn’t dying – just the leaves. It is about the changing seasons. Our lives ebb on through the changes and we know the seasons of our own days. Birth to growth, decay to death. But, something lives on. We are a community of faith, a church that lives because of change.
Do you pray for change? Mostly, I like to keep things organized and the same. But, I believe we should pray for change. Change is really growth. Spiritual growth is about taking risks, stepping out of our comfort zones and stepping into change.
Autumn is one of the most beautiful seasons! May the colors of fall lead you to pray for change.
