Sunday Blessings!
Everything looks stunning in Autumn and Autumn... has arrived. In this photo one of the things you may notice is the simplicity of an old door with chippy paint. Some may view it as in dire need of repair, but I view it as a work of art. An old piece that has weathered many storms and yet has acquired a beauty you can not replicate. An old brick, that too, has become a little rough around the edges, but if able, could tell us a story or two. And of course, a flower, a beautiful representation of the color of fall. I have always been grateful to live in an area where I get to experience the changing of the seasons. Each one capturing a beauty of its own. Aren't we kind of like this too? As we age we go through our own seasons of life, we tend to get a little rough around the edges. We're not the same version of our younger selves, but hopefully, not only are we gaining wisdom but perhaps we're becoming more beautiful within, for we have each weathered storms, encountered blessings and have many stories to tell. ~ Mindy

Old churches must not simply stand as monuments to the past but as spiritual grandparents that have invested in the future by passing on their life to others and releasing their offspring to form new congregations. ~ unknown

Have a great week! Use your Super Power and change someone's day!
I am enjoying your reflecting comments so much each week on the blog. Hopefully we can see a story in the door that has a tale to tell as we weather all that the storms of life send our way.
