Fall arrives on September 23, but alas, I was able to rumble with the squirrels and stomp in fallen, crackling oak leaves in Texas today. We are soon entering Spring and tucking away our comfy jams and sweaters. The buds are blooming, we may be sneezing, but we all enjoy change, and the colors of each season. In the fall we like a crock pot brewing a stew or a pot of Chili. In the spring we anticipate a rainbo of colors to decorate the garden. Great expectations swirl as CHANGE brings in something FRESH and NEW. Lovely leafs float to the ground and feather the earth. They mulch naturally under the hooves of horses in my Mexican hood. Our Fall colors include marigolds in the garden, then comes the poinsettias! EVERY SEASON invites a change. Letting it blow out the dust bunnies in my brain and on the front porch. Imagining roasting weenies and marshmallows over an open fire, all wrapped up as a cool breeze rosy’s up those cute cheeks. Chatting it up about this and that with any ear who cares to listen. LIFE IS GOOD in Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. Each has its own unique CHARM. A Sound of Joy

Gather up a few friends and host a pot luck! Fascinate over all the collected perceptions shared and mix it up with hearty laughter. Dreary days drown —-as our hang over worries — simply burn away as we engage with people we love. IGNITE gratitude and He will surely supply a hefty bounty of memorable divine encounters. Remember the time we……Anticipate a surge of thanksgiving snapshots to captivate your mind. Toasting ice tea, roasting a turkey, cutting up cranberries, baking biscuits, barbecuing yummy meats. Ahhh yes, most good memories are bathed in food. Be genuinely grateful for each season. Let the Holy Spirit stir your heart with HOPE for what is to yet come. It’s the simple things like wearing sweaters, socks and tucking yourself into Grandma’s worn out quilt. Gulp down a tankard of a spicy apple cider, feel that uncontrollable GLOW blow up into a humongus SMILE. Wear those cute gloves and chill out with fine feathered friends. The first day of fall, will come, but until then, get your sneakers on and explore the outdoors. ANTICIPATION causes IMAGINATION to stir, and our Mexican variety of blooms will arrive soon. Thank You God for Your faithfulness to shift us into whatever You have stored for us next.
