taking in nutrients – v2

the same as the others
in the season of feeding
spring and summer months of life
taking in nutrients
living, growing
drinking in the water
the living word
growing, growing
into the light
toward the harvest
shining after
the seasons changing
in the dying
their time ending
sharing with others
their gifts, talents,
sharing their fruits
their true colors
with our loving God

taking in nutrients
opening prayer about change of seasons,
how green is not the leaves’ true colors
&
Children’s message – mystery box
-          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
