The first glimpses of fall weather have come: a slight chill in the air, the buzz saw sounds of the cicadas, a few green leaves giving way to red, flowers starting to say farewell… The glory of summer must now defer to the glory of autumn.
On that note, here are a few quotes for you to read and savor:
Faith may dance because Christ sings;
and we may come in the choir
and lift our hoarse and rough voices,
and chirp and sing,
and shout for joy with our Lord Jesus.
Samuel Rutherford
Often, the sweeter the first fruit of a habit,
the more bitter are its later fruits.
Frederic Bastiat, French Economist
How many things have I that others lack?
Can I bring my heart into a quiet, contented frame
to lack what others have?
Jeremiah Burroughs
The way God creates unity
is by making everyone different.
Daniel Ralph
The lesson for fathers (and mothers):
Be the smile of God to your children.
Joe Rigney
Lord, deliver me from the urge to open my mouth
when I should shut it.
Elisabeth Elliot

Enjoy these beautiful days, friends.
I’ll probably say farewell to this post in the morning.
