Death surrounds us,
But with it brings life.
Beautiful color springs forth
As captivating fall pushes away life,
Breath stealing color turns our world into a palate of beauty.
As the fall leaves are pushed from their place high in the trees,
They dance to the ground in glorious color,
Bringing forth beauty and joy,
Nurturing the earth and bringing hope for spring to come.
Death to self brings forth new life,
Like a new believer surrendering,
Their life becoming a blazing riot of colorful hope,
The promise comes for new growth in seasons to come,
Beautiful is a life filled with Christ,
It is in the midst of this death to self that I feel full and alive.
