Thoughts on Sunday – Seasons and Geese #5

The Changing of Seasons; of Geese, Flying South.

It happens each year about now. They take a respite on Lake Opeka on their way south. It’s not that I love geese so much. In fact, I’d much rather they stay up in the air, flying wherever they fly, instead of hanging around mylake and messing up the place!

This morning at Lake Opeka (October 21, 2017)

Yet they always come, stirring my memory of past fall seasons: times of trial, heartache, and challenge. And in the midst of the memories, I remember God’s presence made real through people who came along side me.

As surely as seasons change, so do life’s challenges. In it all God is ever-present. Whether flying north or south, the geese are my constant reminder of God’s faithfulness..

I don’t want to forget. So I took a photo today – to help me REMEMBER and then CELEBRATE the moment when others join here in remembering God present with us.

While the earth remains,
seed time and harvest,
and cold and heat,
and summer and winter,
and day and night
shall not cease.

Genesis 8:22
