Fall

The sun danced across lush green grass at the church today. Though it was still warm today, I felt something in the air that reminded me of fall.

For some reason fall is the time of the year when I am most nostalgic and at the same time most open to the present moment. In the cool breezes I am aware of the Pneuma—Breath of God.

I surveyed the flowers and blue sky, and the light in them spoke to me of God’s love and communion with me. That all creation rejoices, that his family alights my heart.

O Lord truly immerse me in more of those fall days when you were real to me, when you knocked me down, and shocked my senses.
