"Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall." Psalm 55:22
Fall is an amazing season. Leaves display beautiful gifts of color. God carefully changes His awesome design and allows us to enjoy the timing of His love.
Many leaves will not stay on the trees. They will separate from where they have been nurtured for many months. Strong winds will carry them and we will question why they haven’t been allowed to stay. Some will remain. We will wonder why they were not chosen to fall...
God gives time to purpose and decides when the gifts of His creation will be revealed. We too will face strong winds in our lives, but God will provide strength for us to hold on tight. He will help us remember who has already planned for the moment when we will need to let go.
God longs for us to be reminded we have been nurtured by love. He wants us to trust we will arrive safely in His arms of strength. He will guide us with mercy and grace and allow us to develop a heart of faith. He will transform us through the seasons of our lives and guide us in the frailties of our falls. He will prepare us for what’s to come, even before we are strong enough to finally let go…
Dear God, You prepare us for the seasons of change and help us remember we have been created by You. We are grateful for ALL you provide. Help us find courage to remember there will be times we will fall. Catch us in Your arms of strength and lift us where we will see glimpses of what’s ahead. We will put our trust in You, as we choose to lovingly remain faithful. Amen
