autumn colors

“For man, autumn is a time of harvest,

of gathering together.

For nature, it is a time of sowing,

of scattering abroad.”

- Edwin Way Teale

For the Christian it is all of the above

all of the time.

Sow the seeds of faith,

scatter them everywhere…

gather together and pray,

and there will be a harvest of souls.

“It is not always granted to the sower

to live to see the harvest.

All work that is worth anything is done in faith.”

- Albert Schweitzer
