Holding On

The apples, amazed

by an early autumn snow

still “hanging in there”


It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:7-8a (NIV)

leave-taking


a leafless goodbye

to the blazing quilted sky

“I’m still here,” says God.


And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age

Jesus – Matthew 28:20b (NIV)

with my breath a trail of fog

the turn toward home

Autumn Rains


Like the autumn rains

on the thirsty, thirsty plains

hope springs eternal


and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s Love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Romans 5:5 (ESV)

Autumn Observations


with hummingbirds gone

and no trees filled with bird song

almost leafless rain.


There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven.

Reflections

Photo by Gary Fultz on Unsplash

warming at the fire

encircled by the darkness

faces in the flames


For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

1 Corinthians 13:12 (NIV)
