Don’t say “It’s August? The summer is almost over!”
Rather, ask “How can I, today, enjoy God’s glory in a way that I can’t in winter?”
With an Infinite God, You can have it both ways. You have real free will and God is really in control of everything that happens in the universe.

I decided not to say “Summer is almost over” this August, too.
Instead I said, “Today is August first–another whole month of summer to go!”
But I do like your alternative even better.
More importantly, I think we should ask ourselves in January, “How can I enjoy God’s glory in these bone chilling temperatures and snowstorms that I can’t in the warm and sunny summers.” At least for me, winter is when I’m more likely to complain rather than think of God’s glory. I need to think Winter Wonderland of God’s Glory instead of complaining.
