On Sunday, June 21st, we celebrate Father’s Day! We pay special tribute and honor to all fathers and to those who have been like fathers to us. Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere this year falls on June 21st, dates vary depending upon when the sun reaches the northernmost point of the equator, the event marks the longest day of the year!  This year Summer begins on June 21st.  Does God speak about summer in the Bible? This was a question that I was asked recently, and it made me quite curious. So, I set off on an expedition through the Old and New Testament of the Bible to see what Bible verses about summer I could find. I found several passages referring to summer as the growing season: a time of the year to enjoy the outdoors. From hiking in forests to swimming in refreshing water, summer is a great opportunity to indulge in the natural fun activities our planet offers. However, the Bible also encourages us to work and remain prudent during this time as historically this season. Jesus used many parables (short stories) to an agricultural society – a way people of that time could understand. Here are some verses in the Bible that I came across: “Provides her supplies in the summer and gathers her food in the harvest.” Proverbs 6:8. “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.” Matthew 24:32. “Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come; the cooing of doves is heard in our land.” Song of Songs 2:12. Some very interesting reading. Wishing you a very happy and restful Summer …. may the season of Summer bring along many more smiles and high energies for each of you. God Bless!
