It was no accident, no coincidence, that the seasons came round and round year after year. It was the Lord speaking to us all and showing us over and over again the birth, life, death, and resurrection of his only begotten Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ, our Lord. It was like a best-loved story being told day after day with each sunrise and sunset, year after year with the seasons, down through the ages since time began. Francine Rivers
About This Quote

Seasons come round. It is the Lord that speaks to us day by day about the birth, life, death and resurrection of his only begotten son. The greatest glory in living is not to never fall down but to rise up every time we have fallen down. For me, the greatest glory in living is being part of the life of our Savior Jesus Christ our Lord. To be a Christian is to be part of the story of salvation that began at the first time when God sent his only begotten Son into this world to live among us as a man among men.
