Happy Falliday!

What do you do to celebrate Fall, the change of seasons?

My family and I celebrated by filling small vials with water and sitting around the table with different colors of food coloring. We talked about change and our what changes we wanted to make in ourselves this next year. We also talked about our weaknesses and which ones we wanted Christ to change for us. Then we put in one drop of coloring (no more than 3) for every weakness we were giving him to change.

We traveled up the canyon to the river and dumped out our water and watched it disappear symbolic of Christ taking our weaknesses and changing them to strengths. We then filled our vials with the pure, clear water and brought it home. Each of my kids put their on their dresser to view each day as a reminder that Christ can change us into something better, clearer just as he cleared the water.

You are a creator of change with every breath you take. You breath in cool air and warm it and blow it back out. You do that. You make that change with every breath. God created the world and you to be in a constant cycle of change, why not celebrate it?
