The Beauty of the Seasons

At the website FirstThings.com, they made a point about the covenant that God makes with Noah, everyone already knows about God's promise never to send another flood to destroy the earth, but something that most people miss is the second part of that promise found at Genesis 8:22 “As long as the earth endures,seedtime and harvest,cold and heat,summer and winter,day and night will never cease.”
In other words, as long as life endures we will live in a world governed by regularity and sameness.

That's why I love this quote, which I posted a couple weeks ago,

"A child kicks its legs rhythmically through excess, not absence, of life. Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, “Do it again”; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough. . . It is possible that God says every morning, “Do it again,” to the sun; and every evening, “Do it again,” to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike: it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we."

The Fall is a great time to delight in all the monotony of God's creation, the smells, the sights, the glory of creation.
