Psalm 118:24 <\/em>\r\n\r\nIt is out of all the seasons God has created it is the time of Autumn when such beautiful colors in leaves begin to fall as small creatures busily prepare for harvest. Squirrels are especially very fascinating watching them hurry and scurry up and down the tallest tree. These funny and quirky furry friends seem to almost always get along with everyone including various birds of every kind \u2013 while at the same time focusing on their daily assigned tasks until sunset.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the squirrels, the acorns are a pretty interesting part of God's Creation too, because of there small size, yet their potential growth turning into an oak tree after many years.\r\n\r\nThese reminders of God's Creation are all around us and while much of what He gave us provides endless beauty and sometimes also entertainment; everything HE has created carries a message from Him. A central message found not only in the four seasons of the year but also within the of seasons of our lifetime.\r\n\r\nThis message often compels us to the Calling to worship the Creator and to trust Him by learning more about who HE is. In fact, not only is there a wonderful spectacle perfectly unfolding and accessorizing each element pulling us closer to enjoy HIS Creation\u2026 We are given beautiful moments in detail all through the pages of HIS WORD. So often, these glimpses of eternity leave us breathless, as we fix our eyes and heart on HIM. Any time worshipping God is a time well spent as it also helps preserve our earthly time spent, with our very own family and friends.\u202fSoon a Holy tugging ever so gently, reveals to our heart His Love for us and how HE desires to tuck us inside the tender Heart GOD, as HIS very own Keepsake!\r\n\r\nMy Sweet Friend, do you KNOW this Creator, Sustainer, and Savior? Do you KNOW JESUS, God\u2019s Son, Loves YOU? It is a LOVE for YOU, that is bigger and stronger unlike anything HE has created, and similar to the way an acorn from an oak tree, grows\u2026 When you will place your faith in JESUS, HE will grow the tiny faith from your heart to much, much MORE because His Love for YOU is everlasting!\r\n\r\n<em>John 3:16 says it like this ~ For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16<\/em>\r\n\r\n<strong>So will YOU ACCEPT JESUS as YOUR SAVIOR?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Ephesians 2:8-9 reminds us that ~ For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.<\/em>\r\n\r\n<strong>And\u2026 IF YOU GIVE YOUR HEART to JESUS...<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Romans 10:13 says ~ For everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved.<\/em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Plus, when you do YOU CAN KNOW YOU ARE SAVED!<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Since we are told in I John 5:11-13 that ~ This is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
