The Beauty of the Unchanging God in Every Change


 Just before the winter winds strip signs of life from flowers and trees, autumn marks the coming barren season with a burst of colors. Seasons change in a cycle. Winds come and go. In every change, God remains the same.
 Who tells each leaf its color? Who knows where each leaf will fall? Who tells the winds to blow this way or that? In every change, God remains the same.
 In every season, in every angle of the sun, all creation sings the praise of our beautiful Creator. He created all things and conducts the symphony of creation's song to His praise. The colors, the breeze, the sun and the clouds, and in every changing season, somethings stirs in my heart to find joy in the beauty of it all. In every change, God remains the same.

Black Walnut Festival in Camden, Ohio



I recently brought my family less than a half hour north of Hamilton to the small town of Camden, Ohio, to enjoy their annual Black Walnut Festival.
Nowadays, most small town festivals are rows of politicians and gutter replacement salesmen. Not the Black Walnut Festival!

Camden is a charming town with a nice downtown that is easily walked. The festival has booths of local vendors and artisans. I enjoyed speaking with local beekeepers about local honey, maple syrup farmers about local syrup, and local food vendors!






The Black Walnut Festival also boasts a sizable car show through their main strip.

There was even a local business selling s'more pops (s'more on a stick!), which you see Levi enjoying!


My family and I enjoyed the Black Walnut Festival in Camden, Ohio. We recommend that your family attend next year!
