fall~comfort~trust

the leaves are turning colors, and falling. its a sign of a new season. a fresh start.
as humans, sometimes we turn away from God, and fall. but just like the trees, we can take a new start through His grace, and continue to grow always upwards towards Him.

God does not leave us abandoned. when the things we attempt to do leave us in failure, He is there with His way. when the world fails to bring us comfort, He is there with a warm embrace. when our lives lack peace, He is a continual fountain of peacefulness for us to drink from.

surrendering to the will of God can make the worst situation pale in the presence of His guidance. once we've accepted the will of God, the struggle to trust during hard times becomes so much less rabid, so much more natural. i trust Him because He is God.

leaves have been falling ever since the fall of humanity, but spring always follows. in the same way, we can look back on God's prior leadings as evidence for faith.
