Acts 14:17 Â Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
When Labor Day approaches the summer season is over, leastwise around these parts. I know this because I Have spent time, endless hours in the course of servicing tourists, for example during my time at Grand Teton national park, the season ended with Labor Day. That seems far ago, almost in another Galaxy so to speak. It was during a time right after our daughter graduated, moving out we also left home after selling out. We took up residence in a small RV and went to the Grand Teton Park. While there we both kept jobs at the park and learn the massive task of caring for of thousands of employees and even more tourists.
It was then as well both my wife and I warned the employees, friends we developed, and anyone who would listen for more than a few minutes of the coming trouble we knew was arriving on our shores and in the world. I remember distinctly walking down the main path from our residence in the early morning. Usually when I had a break, which was not very often. It was then I would look at the morning sun gleaming on the panhandle of Mount Moran. It was a gorgeous atmosphere to work in, but it was very stressful, with millions of visitors, all of whom had to be taken care of. When Labor Day arrived, we were more than ready to leave the park. We were part of those groups of people who were employed seasonally by various National park service companies. We had been employed by the GTLC.
Now once again summer is leaving us. I like the summer time. Fall though around here is full of what we term “Indian Summer.” This is also an ideal time. The changes in mountain scenery from green to gold take place, as hunters by the thousands take the task to the upper regions of the high peaks to take game. In the lower valleys the fisherman find the hearty challenges to trick the fall spawn of brown trout found in the rivers and streams. In the lakes the heavy traffic is gone as the lakes cool down, the bigger fish begin to move more and those fishermen in the know go for them. As I see the changes I remember the seasons. While there are parts of the country with more beautiful fall foliage, there is nowhere on earth in the fall except here in this country. Winter is usually round the corner, with December taking in its full swing at the season calendar. When it gets finished we begin with the newness of January and the winter really picks up then. We actually like to see January and even February come. Because once they go, we have spring back, the welcome summer again.

The seasons remind me the Lords in charge. Seasons, day, and night, remind me of the covenant the LORD made. This covenant which was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach brought salvation to both Jew and Gentile. The Lord said if you could stop day or night in their season from occurring then the covenant found in David would be broken. But the comparing the unalterable day and night, the Lord set the bounds for them to continue forever until the end of time. Each season, each month, each day, and each time I pass through these the covenant of the LORD comes to mind.
Jeremiah 33:20 Â Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;
21 Â Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
Along with the covenant I also think of the feasts. In Leviticus we read of the ‘feasts of the LORD’. By the way both scriptures I have put in here with the capitalized LORD actually mean YHWH, the covenant personal name of God. We also say Yahweh or Jehovah. The name was considered so sacred the Jews would write and or say Adonai when using it. When Jesus [Yeshua] came though, he taught us to pray. This prayer was directed to ‘Our Father’ who art in heaven. We learned through the Messiah that the once distant God was being made known to all men through Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach his only begotten Son, who fulfilled the law and the prophets. He was then known as the Father and God of the Lord Jesus Christ [Yeshua HaMassiach]. Yeshua was and is the root of David.
Moreover, we are fast approaching the fall feasts. This is the time of harvest, which speaks of the Hebrew New Year which is 5769 this year! We celebrate a feast called Rosh Hashanah [Hebrew New Year] and one thing we do, for example is have a special time of apple slices and honey. The holiest day of the year is known as Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement. This was fulfilled for us in Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach who died for our sins, was buried, then resurrected, and is coming soon to complete our full restoration to the LORD. Then we celebrate Sukkot, the feast of tabernacles. This will be fulfilled upon the arrival of Yeshua HaMassiach to this earth to establish his rule and reign from Jerusalem on this earth. This will lead to the Millenial reign of Christ here with his Bride the believers which are found in Jesus [Yeshua]. These are the fall feasts, although there is many other feasts and traditions the Hebrew use.
Leviticus 23:4  ¶These are the feasts of the LORD, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
These are but three of numerous feasts the believer should know about. For they all relate more background and detail of the greatness of our God and how he foreshadowed and foreknew to bring us a savior. The others are Passover, Shavuot or Pentecost, and some also celebrate ‘The Last Great Day’. The feasts are highly prophetic and foreshadow the plan of the LORD God. I recommend you become acquainted them in purpose and celebration.
