Seasons

I think that I am finding myself being more aware of the changing seasons now that I am a beekeeper. The bees are governed totally by the season that is current and particularly by the season that is coming - they started preparing for winter months ago! We, in our modern, western world function largely unchanged through the seasons - we might choose our leisure activity by the weather and the outside temperature but much else remains unaltered. God gave us seasons for a reason: we should take the time to appreciate them and go with the flow of our seasonal calendar. What an amazing God we have.
