the task that is before us
our calling from God
just doing our part
the work its own reward
staying committed
to the work God gave us
standing in the storm
working in the fields

green
maple leaf and a colored maple leaf
-
the
green color of the leaves is not the true color
-
this
is the color we have when we are being fed
-
nurtured
in the spring and summer with the Word;
-
we
shine our true colors in autumn
-
sharing
our true color with God and the world
-
staying
close to God
-
each
an individual
-
shining
the colors of Christ
