This time of year is hard for me and I bet a lot of inmates. For me it has been enhanced by the loss of 2 people I loved. Fall is, to me, the most beautiful time of year. Even though it is death, in essence, it is full of beauty. Watching the leaves change, feeling the cool fall breeze on my face, smelling the scent of decaying leaves, to me, that is what makes fall wonderful! It also brings back many good memories of times spent with my loved ones. Time where we would be laughing, and playing together, yes, even Aunt Frances. Shoot, there was a few times she was the start of water fights at our family reunions in KY!! In those dark times, Holy Spirit is there. See ya'll, He is living inside every single person who claims Christ as Lord and Savior. He is there reminding us of God's Word. Showing us the way we should go. Filling you with His joy and Love, and Peace. Before time began, before you were born, God chose you to be His child! He chose you to have eternal life via His Son, Jesus Christ! Ephesians 1:4b-6 Paul writes; "Because of His Love, god had already decided that through Jesus Christ He would bring us to Himself as His sons- this was His pleasure and purpose. Let us praise God for His glorious grace, for the free gift He gave us in His dear Son!" Beloved friends and family, remember to praise God! Even in times of deep despair. IN times of pure darkness where there seems to be no end in sight! God IS there! He is there holding your hand! Call out to Him! Praise Him THROUGH the storm! Praise Him with your whole being! He loves you and with that praise will come a change in your sight! Aim higher than your circumstances! Set your eyes on Jesus! He is the Author of your Hope through Jesus!
