Perfect order

Seasons 18951C

By the time the summer solstice occurs, it feels as if the season has been in full swing for weeks. It’s bittersweet that just when summer officially starts, the length of daylight begins decreasing. Before we’re ready to let go of the season, summer marches toward fall, and then winter with the year’s shortest day.


Yet that is our Creator's plan: “You have fixed all the boundaries of the earth; you have made summer and winter” (Psalm 74:17, ESV). God fashioned the world to be beautiful, good and perfectly symmetrical. With concise order, he ordained seasons, rhythms, orbits and natural boundaries. As God’s beloved children, we’re blessed to enjoy the intricacies and patterns of this magnificent universe.

Spirit's Touch

As trees bear summer fruit, may my life bear the Spirit-fruit of “love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control” (Galatians 5:22-23, ESV).


“Jesus, like any good fisherman, first catches the fish; then he cleans them.”

—Mark Potter


God has cast our confessed sins into the depths of the sea, and he’s even put a “No Fishing” sign over the spot.

—D.L. Moody
