Should the -ember months scare you?

Should the -ember months scare you?

I believe in the Scriptures.
I believe in symbolism.
And in the spiritual significance of numbers.

But, sentiments and unscriptural apprehensions must be treated as what they are. Many cultures have their respective superstitions and practices passed down over the years. In rare circumstances, some of these superstitions step above their peers and enter the world stage - especially in respect of matters such as time which is a common phenomenon to us all.

There is nothing extraordinarily eerie to the months, save the anxiety they have come to attract.

Time is a constantly revolving wheel, switching between the past, present, and future.

There's as much trouble in the world in the 'ember' months as in January and August. And as much glory and beauty in September as in April.

Our fears have added horns to these times and made figures out of shadows.
It can change. We can change.

God is in all days, eternally good and perpetually protective. His love doesn't go on vacation once the Calendar flips to September.

Stay prayerful.
Stay hopeful.

Should the ember months scare you.
