Music Notes

As we look around during the season of Autumn, we are reminded of change. From the changing of the leaves to the frost on the ground, we see that things are different. It almost seems as if the world is slowing down, preparing for the cold to come. As I sit at my window and write, viewing this scene of beautiful creation, I am reminded of changes that occur in our lives. As we grow in our walk with Christ, our old self begins to change and fall off, making way for Christ to mold and shape us, as a potter forms a beautiful ceramic jar. During this season of Thanksgiving, I hope that we may remain mindful of this. I hope that we will truly give thanks in our hearts for the change that Christ can bring to our character, for the hope of new, abundant life that He offers us – and may this drive our worship and praise. May the fact that God is concerned with every aspect of each of our lives bring us to give thanks, as we proclaim, “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever!”
