Worship Through the Turning Seasons
The Rhythm of Change and the Call to Worship
September brings cooler mornings, changing leaves, and a sense of new rhythm. School is back in session. Routines pick up again. And something inside us begins to shift. Whether you’re a parent packing lunches or a student navigating fresh schedules, fall marks a clear transition. But, we can still worship through the seasons.
It’s in these seasonal shifts that we’re reminded worship isn’t just a Sunday song. It’s a way of walking with God.
To worship through the seasons is to acknowledge Him not just in the constants, but in the changes. And when we begin to see our routines as opportunities to praise, our relationship deepens. This is the heart of WORSHIP: When Our Relationship Serves Him In Praise.
A Porch Swing, a Journal, and a Fresh Start
One September, I made a simple change. Instead of jumping into work the moment the house was quiet, I sat outside on the porch swing with my Bible and a mug of coffee. Just fifteen minutes. That’s all I committed to.
At first, it felt indulgent, even unproductive. But soon, it became a sacred rhythm. I began journaling prayers, thanking God for the crisp air, the shifting trees, the start of a new school year. In this, I wasn’t doing more. I was becoming more aware of His goodness, His voice, and His presence in the ordinary.
That season? I felt more peace and clarity than I had in years.
Worship Through the Seasons Means Drawing Close in the Transitions
In Ecclesiastes 3:1, we’re reminded:
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.”
Every season invites us to re-center. In particular, Fall reminds us that letting go can be beautiful, and that slowing down can make space for renewal.
Worship isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s a whispered thank you. A long pause. A willingness to trust God when we don’t yet see what’s ahead.
Make Worship Your Autumn Rhythm
Let the turning leaves remind you: God is faithful in every season. As routines return and schedules fill, choose to enter this month with intentionality. Don’t rush past the beauty of change.
To worship through the seasons is to carry praise into every part of life, including the transitions.
This fall, slow your steps. Listen closely. And let worship lead the way.
