BEAUTY IN THE VARIETY

Ah, fall has arrived, which means the leaves are changing and bringing about some of the most spectacular colors of the year.


If you’ve been anywhere near a park or even a cluster of a few trees over the past couple weeks, you may have noticed people out with their cameras. Some may be taking high school senior pictures, wedding engagement or family photos, or just trying to capture the beauty of Creation. One thing’s for certain, they’re all taking advantage of the beautiful colors. The variety of trees and shrubs is what brings out the various colors - the evergreens hold onto their deep green foliage,  oaks slowly turn from their summer green to a dull brown as the fall progresses, birch leaves quickly turn yellow before releasing them early in the season, and maples (my favorite of all) have a variation of yellow, orange, and red.

As the season progresses the leaves disappear and only a skeleton of trunks and branches remain, making it hard to tell the difference between them.

Revelations 7:9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb…
