“Blessed be his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and Amen!”
Psalm 72:19
I guess I can now officially say Happy Autumn! Summer 2015 is off the calendar, and although not in its full glory yet, the signatures of Autumn are on their way! With every seasons change come new graces…God gives us new sights, smells, tastes, and weather to remind us we have entered into something new and refreshing. One of the most notable changes we experience as summer gives way to autumn is the glorious leaves and the rich, deep colors that are so pleasing to the eye! Today, we are revisiting some of our favorite autumnal scenes from the most recent years. Come along as we travel the roads of the deep south and we will even make a stop by our home in the Appalachian foothills!
