They say Autumn is the earth preparing itself for death - only to be born anew. The earth relives itself of flowers, leafs, and fruits with the expectation that upon releasing what it currently has, it will sow and invest in the future of tomorrow. Seeds go into the soil to die, but their journey does not end there. The dying place becomes a birthing ground for new life to uproot and grow once again. It is overwhelmingly convincing then, that death is not the end. “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” -1 Cor. 15:55-57 (KJV)
