What a beautiful time of year! I love the Fall season with all the colorful changes of nature. The earth just seems to cry out praises and honor to our great God Almighty! A young woman shared with me recently how that she was feeling the need to just slow down and enjoy the beauty. Although this is one of the most beautiful seasons, it is also one of the busiest. Right now we are all most likely thinking of what we will prepare next week for Thanksgiving dinner and what gifts we will buy our family and friends for Christmas. Oh for the simplicity of times past when these holidays were more about the true meaning of Christmas and spending time with loved ones rather than cooking the perfect casserole and buying the best gifts.

I propose that we all set aside some time during the upcoming holiday weeks to recognize God’s blessings and celebrate Jesus and the freedom His coming has provided us.

What can you do to make this a priority and ensure that you live your fullest life?
