Fall is a time for those who love being outdoors during this season. God created it for all of us to enjoy.
Hunting seasons are here. We head to forests, fields, and water to hunt deer, waterfowl, turkeys, and small game. Fish feed heavily in preparation for the winter months ahead. It is a great time to fish. Hiking is a way to get exercise and enjoy the fall colors. Fall camping is quiet, peaceful, and colorful. Campfires warm our bodies and souls as we look to the night sky God created.
When out in the woods or on a boat watching the sunrise or sunset. When at the end of a hike or camping under the stars. When we do chores around the farm or sit on our porch enjoying the fall colors and cooler air. Remember to lift this prayer and thank Him for the fall season.
Heavenly Father, thank you for another beautiful fall day You have blessed us with. Thank you for wild places. Thank you for the wildlife. Outdoors, we are made better, wiser, and more aware of You.
May we all respect and nurture all you have given us so that those who come after might be blessed as we have been. Watch over and protect us as we seek the outdoor pleasures you have created for us.
I ask that you help us to keep our love of the outdoors in its proper place in our lives. Behind our love and worship of you and your son Jesus. Behind our families that you have blessed us with.
I ask all these things in the name of your son Jesus.
Amen
