Leaves off the trees and scattering them
Chaotically across the landscape.
Some desperately hang on in defiance, but
Eventually the brown stragglers will
Succumb to the gales as well.
I'm cozy in my recliner,
Sipping my coffee and working on my
Bible study for next week, enjoying a
Few quiet moments before diving into my
Preparations for tomorrow.
A verse comes to mind:
"The wind blows where it wishes, and you
Hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it
Comes from and where it goes." *
I can't see the wind raising havoc outside my
Window, but I can certainly see the results of it.
I can't see God, but I clearly see that He is
Working all around me, in wonderful ways I
Understand, and in lots of ways I don't.
*John 3:8
