“Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.” Hebrews 10:23 NLT
There’s something about the shift of seasons that invites us to pause. The air cools. The light softens. Trees release what they no longer need. In the quiet turning of fall, God gives us a gentle reminder: change is part of His design.
Maybe you’re walking into this season carrying more questions than answers. Perhaps you’re praying for breakthrough and the silence feels heavy. Maybe you’re holding joy in one hand and heartache in the other. Or you’re faithfully putting one foot in front of the other even as worry tries to creep in.
Wherever you find yourself, here’s the good news: our hope isn’t anchored to our circumstances — it’s anchored to Christ. His promises don’t wither with the leaves. His faithfulness doesn’t fade when the days grow shorter.
The trees don’t fight the changing season; they trust the One who brings spring again. In the same way, we can release our grip on control and cling instead to the One who holds all things together. Waiting on God is not wasted time. It’s the sacred space where faith grows roots.
So as this new season unfolds, lift your eyes. God has not forgotten you. His timing is sure. His presence is near. And even now, He is weaving your story into something beautiful for His glory.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for being faithful through every season. Teach me to trust You in the waiting, to rest in Your promises, and to keep my eyes fixed on You. Let hope rise in my heart as I remember that You are near and at work, even when I can’t see it. In Jesus’ name, amen.
