Soon the beauty of autumn will be replaced with the stark white and grays of winter. Cold winds will blow and people will hunker down inside their warm shelters. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years will pass and the whites and grays will become even starker as the Christmas decoration tarnish in the harsh winds of winter. But then, one day, a shoot will poke its tender head from the freshly thawed ground and once again green will appear on the landscape but only after the delicate colors of Spring have arrived. Let us resolve to endure the coming winter with the joy of a people whose God loves them very much indeed. He loves us so much that he sent his only begotten Son to die for us and he rose from the dead after enduring three days in the grave, his winter.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
