Bean Seeds and a Season of Caregiving
Sometimes, I feel like one of those unhealthy beanstalks, especially right now in a season of intense caregiving. I must physically stop and allow God to refuel me.

Kara and her husband Conrad live in Calgary, Canada, where she taught for 28 years. She loves the Word of God and encourages others through her devotional writing. Kara felt led to write a book of devotionals (Searching for Sea Glass) when her journey with chronic illnesses pressed her more deeply into God’s arms of love. She prays that her journey and refinement will encourage your walk with God.

Many things may prompt us to pray for others. Social media, conversing with a friend, or even a recipe book. Pray and let them know.
We are created to celebrate. Celebration is a spiritual discipline rooted in our trust in the character of God and our need to thank Him for His goodness.
Taking things for granted happens in many areas of our lives – but intentionally pausing to reflect can reorient us. This happened to me recently as I reflected on the phrase “in Jesus’ name.”
