PEDEN

This is Bob Peden of Central - A United Methodist Community here in Meridian. Have you noticed the changing of the leaves. How could you not have noticed. The red, orange, yellow of the autumn leaves is always a treat. But not all trees embrace that change. Some hold onto their green leaves until winter hits and they just turn brown. And here in Mississippi we are blessed with lots of pine trees that hold onto there old needles until they are pushed away by the new ones sprouting in the spring. People respond to change in those ways too. Some of us turn bright and cheerful at the prospect of something new. We release the old and anticipate the new. Others of us hold onto the old for as long as we possibly can. We avoid any change whatsoever. This fall as you watch the leaves change, think about which kind of tree you are like. God created us all. Change is life. How do you respond to change.
