This episode holds special meaning as autumn captures the essence of my soul—it was during an autumn season of life that I learned the power of letting things fall away and came home to myself in a sacred way.

Like a gentle whisper, autumn arrives not as an interruption but as a divine invitation. In this week's autumn journal reflection, we explore the sacred art of welcoming change and discovering God's profound truth: what appears as ending is actually transformation clothed in divine purpose.

This week, we're exploring transitions and trust—those sacred in-between spaces where transformation happens, even when we can't see it yet.

Welcome to Week 4 of our Autumn Journal Reflection series! This week, we're exploring the stunning transformation happening all around us through the lens of autumn's magnificent color palette. Join us for a sacred pause as we discover what the changing leaves can teach us about our own seasons of transformation.

Like ancient trees that grow ring by ring, we are beings of infinite layers—living manuscripts written by our Creator's hand. This week's autumn reflection invites you into the holy dance of gathering what serves you and releasing what no longer fits who you're becoming.

Join me as we discover the profound mystery in how nature surrenders to its seasons—and what this teaches us about our own spiritual journey. We'll explore what it means to release with grace, create space for divine purpose, and trust the deeper rhythms of growth God has designed for us.

Find a comfortable space with something warm to drink. Begin noticing what you're grateful for—starting with breath, heartbeat, shelter, and warmth. Expand your awareness to include people, beauty, kindness, and growth. Place your hand over your heart and whisper: "Thank you, God, for this life, this day, this moment. Help my heart stay awake to your goodness."
