As the leaves turn color, we rejoice in the cooler weather and the autumnal colors. Even though we know that those colors signal the coming of winter, of cold weather and bare trees. But even so, we have hope, for we know our Lord is faithful. Yes, the autumn leaves will fall, and winter will come. But we will wait in hope for the coming of Spring and the renewal of the earth. Let our spirits rejoice and be renewed as well, for we “trust in his holy name.”
Psalm 33:20-22
“We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.
In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you.”
