A lot of writers these days, myself included, are writing about the changes that come with autumn.
The coloring of the trees followed by the dropping of leaves causes branches to go bare and the wind to go a little silent. A lot of us may be reflecting on what it is we’re being invited to let go of, or perhaps pause, in this season of life.
Some of us may be mourning the longer and warmer days of summer while others of us may be looking forward to the invitation to come and rest and be dormant.
This is the season of life I find myself in; a season of dormancy.
I feel it, autumn, the harvest season that causes everything to go bare and dormant; I can feel it in my bones.
And I feel, too, this invitation to be still, slow down, and be dormant.
To be dormant means to be temporarily inactive; for your normal, physical functions to slow down for a period of time; to be alive, but not actively growing.
So, today on the blog, I’m sharing what it might mean to turn inward and go dormant during the autumn season, and how for me, this season of dormancy is being marked by gratitude, rest, and receiving.
I’m also sharing with you today what I feel the Lord is asking me to put down for a while as I fully immerse myself in this season of rest.
