Verse of the day

For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-2

Voice of the day

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away; / Lengthen night and shorten day; / Every leaf speaks bliss to me / Fluttering from the autumn tree.

 

Emily Brontë, “Fall, leaves, fall”

Prayer of the day

God, as we enter a new season, may we grieve what is lost, but also look forward to what lies ahead. May the falling of the leaves remind us that there is a time for everything and you are in control.
