To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
— Ecclesiastes 3:1 NKJV

Scripture & Prayer Submitted by: Carmen R. Cornacchia

Dear Father God,

My eyes behold a sight of your presence in the crisp Autumn air. The majestic trees sway slightly, as their colorful leaves fall upon my path. I walk in wonder and marvel as I admire the changing seasons. How glorious dear Lord that you show us that transition is part of our lives. As we bid the summer adieu, Fall’s beauty is a prelude to shorter days and longer nights. Lord, your splendor is apparent in the auburn tones of your landscape. Our trust in you, accepts this change with fervor as we know it's part of your plan. This is a time of reflection and preparation. We are getting ourselves ready for colder days ahead.

Abba Father, please help us to navigate the changes and trials in our lives. As in the fall, change can happen quickly. Give us your loving guidance as we ponder our thoughts and actions. Let us lean on your word that is our “roadmap”to life. We need to look no further, as our divine purpose is in your capable hands. As the seasons come upon us, let us give thanks to each day you bestow on us. With your love and support, we will receive each day as your blessing. With your salvation, we will be delivered from sin and its consequences. As the darker nights and cold air will be upon us soon, Lord we will remain faithful in your word. “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness” Lamentations 3:22-23. In Jesus name we pray. 

Amen
