Warmth of Autumn by Susan Rios"He does not need to transplant us into a different field,
but right where we are,
with just the circumstances that surround us,
He makes His sun to shine and His dew to fall upon us,
and transforms the very things
that were before our greatest hindrances
into the chiefest and most blessed means of our growth.
No difficulties in your case can baffle Him,
no dwarfing of your growth in years that are past,
no apparent dryness of your inward springs of life,
no crookedness or deformity in any of your past development,
can in the least mar the perfect work that He will accomplish,
if you will only put yourselves
absolutely into His hands
and let Him have his own way with you."

Dallas,
Thank you for sharing this beautiful passage. It's so awesome to realize that God can work with us right where we are in our life, if only we will put ourselves into His hands. God bless.
Praising our Lord for you today Dallas and for your good report. He is so merciful and loving to us.
Enjoy the beauty of this day and this weekend.
Hugs,
