That tree teaches me lots of lessons throughout the seasons. God sure does show off in Fall. Keeping you in my prayers, friend.

I didn’t think about the wonderful soft fall light. That is so true. Go Buckeyes!

I get so much more out of my word of the year with your encouragement and ideas. Thank you!! Still working on next year’s word but I know one will appear.

Yes, it is my favorite season of the year. I’m envious of that gorgeous tree you can view daily in your yard. How blessed you are! And I did love the quote from Thomas Merton. A reminder to us that we give God the glory when we celebrate the person He created us to be. Blessings!

I particularly love the golden light, now that the sun sits lower in the sky. I should have known you’d be a Buckeye fan! Steve grew up in Columbus so he watches their games too. I’ll think of you when I join him! 😁

I benefit myself from the words you choose each year, Jean. You approach them with such openness. It always surprises me how much diversity you uncover. I’ll look forward to discovering which word captures your attention for 2027! I’ve already changed the word I thought I would pick (although it’s still in the same family). But there’s still time to change my mind again. 🙂

Kitchen junk drawers are the best! Glad I am not the only one who straighens them out, then they overnight mess up again. LOL

Wow stale crumbs is a powerful image, Pat. I am slow to learn too and keep surrendering every day, every moment…

We all need to clean those spiritual junk drawers filled with clutter that keeps us separated from a clean and healthy relationship with God. I certainly have a few spaces that need purging and need to get on it. Blessings and thanks for your prayers!
