AS Autumn Approaches

As autumn approaches I am sharing this prayer that was in St. Paul's Church Bulletin.
HAPPY AUTUMN....BET
O GOD OF CREATION, YOU HAVE BLESSED US WITH THE CHANGING OF SEASONS.
AS WE EMBRACE THESE AUTUMN MONTHS, MAY THE EARLIER SETTING OF THE SUN REMIND US TO TAKE TIME TO REST.
MAY THE CRUNCH OF THE LEAVES BENEATH OUR FEET REMIND US OF THE BREVITY OF THIS EARTHLY LIFE.
MAY THE STREAM OF OUR BREATH IN THE COOL AIR REMIND US THAT IS IT YOU WHO GIVE US YOUR BREATH OF LIFE.
MAY THE SCURRYING OF THE SQUIRRELS AND THE MIGRATION OF THE BIRDS REMIND US THAT YOU CALL US TO FOLLOW YOUR WILL.
WE PRAISE YOU FOR YOUR GOODNESS FOREVER AND EVER.
AMEN
