The Creator made this earth in such a wonderful way. During those days of creation, he saw the need for seasonal changes: “And God said, ‘Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years….” (Genesis 1:14, ESV). As we look upon the wonders of creation and appreciate nature’s beauty, we can thank God for good things. In addition, the continued renewal of the seasons reminds us that God is alive and well (Psalm 90:2).
As you look over the list below, you may think of other things that you appreciate about fall. Think on those and give thanks to God for your ability to see, hear, touch, smell and taste. “Give thanks to the God of heaven, for his steadfast love endures forever” (Psalm 136:26, ESV).
It’s harvest time.
There are crisp mornings and cool nights.
Hayrides!
The leaves change colors.
Football weather!
The days are shorter.
Thanksgiving Day!
Grass does not have to be mowed.
The kids are in back in school!
It is a forewarning of winter.
We get a break from summer’s heat.
You can smell the smoke from neighbors’ chimneys.
The soil is allowed to “rest” for the next growing season.
Apple Cider!
Fallen leaves nourish the soil.
Pumpkin pie!
