Over the weekend here in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies we saw beautiful sunshine and bright blue skies, a welcomed spring gift. Today we experienced the start of a few days of rain, another welcomed spring gift. Each season offers so many gifts.
This poem was written a few years ago as I pondered how each season is unique and yet how they work together to provide for the human family. May we be aware of the gifts of the season and give thanks to God for the gift of the seasons of creation and the seasons of our lives.
In Gratitude for the Seasons
For the growth of spring
For the fullness of summer
For the beauty of autumn
For the creativity of winter
We give you thanks O God.
