Must Be Fall

Wasn't it just a few days ago that I was having to walk earlier before it got too hot? Well, now I'm having to wait a little while for it to warm up a bit....must be Fall. And, I am getting into that new routine that includes Wednesday morning Bible study. I'm really enjoying that.

Because I love walking so much, I have the opportunity to pick up the aluminum cans tossed along the side of the road. Back in the summer, I encouraged the youth at church to assist in picking up the cans on the country roads near the church. I am pleased to say that after redeeming the cans for cash, the youth were able to see the fruits of their labor this past Sunday evening. Their leader treated them to a pizza party at the church. I hope they also were gratified to know that the country roads looked so much better and none of those cans ended up in a landfill.

I am reminded that God is the king of recycling. He collects us, battered and discarded, and gives us the opportunity to be new again. Sometimes he does this over and over. He's saving us from ending up in a place that we would consider to be much worse than a landfill, if you know what I mean.

I'm continuing to enjoy my daily upperroom reading. It's wonderful receiving guidance through the experiences of other Christians around the world. I pray that you have a great day, luv, Susan
