Puritan Plain Style- Observation

Changing of the Leaves

     I watched the trees outside for my observation. Because it is fall, they are starting to change colors and a few are already losing leaves. I see this as a person becoming a christian. At first, they are green and naive to all aspects of religion. Then, as they mature and time passes, the colors of the tree change and the person is introduced to religion. When the leaves fall, it represents the person  believing, and changing their life. They are baptized when the trees are bare, and grow into a new person in the spring when the buds come out again. They are being born again, just like the tree is.
