Pastor's Notes
"Bless the Lord, O my soul"
Psalm 104:1
I felt autumn
returning to us even as the calendar changed from July to August. There is a
"feel" in the air as I walk the dogs along the hilltop. It is a feeling of
anticipation and a promise of cool
crisp breezes to clear the haze of summer
from the mountain tops. Golden rod is a visual hint along the path and a few
bushes beginning to take on that reddened tints of my favorite season in the
year.
Thoughts of autumn and its splendor turned my thoughts to praise.
Psalm 104 is great fall reading! The Psalmist reminds us of the wonder of God
very visible in in all creation...if we have "eyes to see and ears to hear" as
Jesus would say. It is so easy for us to head back into the "regular routine" of
life after summer vacations and forget to look around and notice God...and even
easier to forget to praise God.
May autumn be filled with praise and wonder!
Love in Christ
