The change of season from
summer to autumn provokes
mixed emotions in me. I feel
that as we say goodbye to
summer, that the heat that I
enjoy so much is already gone
for a long time. However, I also
welcome with joy the diverse color of
autumn and its mild climate. Both seasons
produce great changes and every year we
adjust to them. Therefore, it is with our
lives. We know the changes that will come
in different "seasons" of our life and we
must be prepared for them. The word
change can produce different sensations
and emotions in each of us. The most
important thing is that we rejoice and
prepare for each of these changes. The
Scripture tells us in Philippians 3:12-14 "12
It is not that he has already achieved
everything or that he is already perfect. Yet I
go on hoping to attain that for which Christ
Jesus came to me. 13 Brothers, I do not
think that I myself have already succeeded.
Rather, one thing I do: Forgetting what is
behind and striving to reach for what is
ahead, 14 I keep moving toward the goal to
win the prize that God offers through his
heavenly calling in Christ Jesus." Let us
continue to move forward in the hope of
reaching what lies ahead.
In Christ,
Rev. Pilar Perez
