Autumn

I have a large and a bit neurotic hatred for winter - well at least Canadian winters. For the past 4 years, Autumn has only been a dreaded season because it brings one thing - winter.

However, this year, I've felt the Lord asking me to change my attitude and my heart. Traditionally, Fall has always been one of my most favourite seasons. This year, I no longer want to miss out on the things I love: pumpkins, hot apple cider in a warm mug between my cold hands, the crunch of leaves as I walk, the smell of a crisp morning and cool night, the browns, golds, yellows and oranges, and butternut squash soup!

No longer will winter steal my joy!
