This autumn season can bring visual reminders of “ripening changes” galore. Deciduous trees. Ripening apples. Pumpkins patches. More, much more.
The weekly summary of CAC postings HERE provides some wonderful “Ripening with Age” commentaries. Perhaps one of the daily articles by Richard Rohr, Joan Chittister, Kathleen Dowling Singh or James Finley will capture your attention for some reading?
May you enjoy this day – “ripe for the picking” – while filled with the Spirit
