From Ecclesiastes 3:1: “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.”

Winter’s first flurry arrives
Transforming autumn’s landscape
Covering like comfy quilts
Dreams look for snowy escape
Storm’s artwork witnesses joy
Taking hearts to a past place
Gazing back to youthful times
Snowflakes remove autumn’s trace
Quiet, tranquil peace whispers
Hearing the timeless calling
Feeling light breezes breathing
Nature moves, never stalling
Time bends with changing seasons
Opening fresh, new page
Witnessing transformation
Life’s Director stands offstage

Central Ohio received its first snowfall of the winter on the night of November 30. The transforming seasons always remind me of how our Lord transforms our lives, faith, and hope. May His grace and peace lead you on your journey.
