The season of fall graces us with a cascade of color, hinting at a hoped-for chill in the morning air as we lean into the wonders of your bountiful world, Creator God.

Continue to awaken us to your sacred glory in all that you have shaped.

Confident we are that you journey with us, encouraging us to face boldly the challenges that each day presents, strengthened by the depths of your caring that beckons us to follow the way of love.

Rev. Jeff Sockwell, Shallowford Presbyterian Church, Lewisville, NC
