You are autumn

and even when the trees have just surrendered
to the harvest time
forfeiting their leaves in late September
sending us inside
still i notice You when change begins
and i've embraced for colder winds
i will offer thanks for what has been and what's the come
You are autumn

autumn, fall, is my favorite season. the weather is cool and crisp, perfect. the beauty we get to experience with the sight of crimsoned leaves and clear colors is really breathtaking. there's so much warmth and love that ties in with autumn. not to mention, apple cider and pumpkin pie.
and for me, with the change of the leaves, there's always a change in my heart; a time for new friendships and new realizations in my walk with God.
God has really provided me affluently these past few weeks. and through the season's change of fall foliage and light sunshine, God has really transformed my heart. He's been breaking the hard bitter pieces, while molding and creating a pure loving mind.
this past month alone, i've gone through emotions and obstacles i've never gone through before in my whole entire life. but God has really been present, with such a tranquil spirit.
i've felt humbled just by His grace and His creations around me these past few days, and i can't wait to see what's in store for me this year.

  2. oh jessicaaaa :) i feel as though i'm on the same page as you. i may not know your emotional struggles and such, but He does and He listens, even though he already knows what burdens our hearts. but i just find it interesting that God is so present in our lives, no matter where we are, location wise and even in our spiritual walks. i hope God continues to stretch you and that you would feel His embrace and strong hold upon your heart especially. i missss you!
