A Simple Guide to Morning Time September 2021 | Fresh Wanderings 13

Earth’s crammed with heaven, and every common bush  afire with God, but only he who sees takes off his shoes…

From time to time it is good to stop and evaluate all of the things we devote our time to. Recently, I re-evaluated why I spend time each month creating a new guide to morning time, especially in light of our current political and health struggles. I took another look at their purpose as well as the purpose behind this little space of mine on the internet. If you read the About page, you will quickly learn that one of the prevailing reasons I began this blog is because I was desperate to see beauty in the chaos.

After reassessing my purpose here I am once again determined that this is exactly where I need to be and these bundles are without a doubt the beauty, truth, and goodness I want to share with you. Hebrews 10:23-25 encourages us to “hold resolutely to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good deeds. Let us not neglect meeting together, as some have made a habit, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the day approaching.”

Never has my desire to help you turn your eyes to Jesus been greater. He is here in our midst, our ever present help in trouble. He placed us here, as mother’s of growing and learning children, in 2021, for such a time as this. Puddles of his love are everywhere, if we simply have eyes to see them. My desire is that these bundles help point you to them.

POETRY

By all these lovely tokens September days are here,

With summer’s best of weather and autumn’s best of cheer.

Tomorrow we are expecting to have the hottest day of the year with the temperature touching 100º and humidity in the 90-95% range. With such heat, it is hard to imaging that near the end of September we will be experiencing anything close to autumn’s best of cheer, but it is true. This is one of the reasons why so many of us love September. The colors change, the weather cools, and autumn begins to nod its head at us.September, by Helen Hunt Jackson, does a lovely job describing all of the changes we will see as fall is ushered in.

Mr’s Jackson had a very interesting life and, when older, enjoyed friendship with Emily Dickinson. You can learn more about her by using the following links:

CRAFT

Our morning time craft for September instructs the student on how to make a felt pear ornament. In autumn of 2019 we did a similar craft with a felted apple. You can find that bundle here: Autumn Morning Time Bundle 10.19 It is one of our favorite crafts to date and is one that I love including again; this time with a different seasonal fruit.

If your student does not enjoy hand sewing, you can easily adapt this craft by gluing the felt pieces together with fabric glue and drawing the seeds with a fabric pen.
