Changing Colors...

As much as I dispise the activities that come along with the fall season (school, college people leaving) I do adore the fall season. The leaves changing, the smell of apple cider, hayrides, chilling evenings. Ahhh, fall is most definately my favorite season. I adore the the look and feel of it. For some odd reason the changing of summer to fall always make me feel very meloncaly and nostalgic. I wonder what the coming year will hold. And glance back at what I've done over the past year. It's a bit like taking a personal inventory. And I can't help but wonder what the coming year will hold.
I read a devotional last night that begged the question "Can you believe in God your whole life, but not believe Him?" The answer was, of course, yes. And how many times this summer have I done that? I've believe in Him, but not believed Him. I haven't trusted him as much as I know I should have. But can a human being really not, at times, doubt the exsistense of a God who they have no aboslute proof of? I mean we can say "God did this or God brought this together." But we can't really know can we? As humans who can only be postive of what we know through our five senses..how can we relate to the invisible God?

More thoughts on this later, Emily
