Autumn's falling leaves are message bearers. They tell me that growing involves letting go, that life is a process. I must never be content with remaining as I am. I must release what I have outgrown in preparation for the new.
When the time is right, leaves fall gently with the passing wind. The renunciation necessary to my spiritual and personal growth will take place in a timely way too, as the winds of my spirit blow through my soul.
In the world of nature, falling leaves are not lost, they enrich the soil and manifest at a later time in new growth. Neither am I diminished as I relinquish what I must outgrow. I have learned from the past, and now I am ready to go beyond it. This is Grace.
Lord, give me the faith to entrust my unfolding wisdom and goodness to you. I release to you all that I am and all that I ever was. Be in me a forgiving, freeing spirit. Even now, let me experience the reality of Grace. In the name of him whose Grace is sufficent, Amen.
