A New Look at a Recipe Book
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.

Kara and her husband Conrad live in Calgary, Canada, where she was a teacher 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 into God’s arms of love more deeply. She prays that her journey and refinement will encourage you in your walk with God.

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.”
I found myself exploring The Prayer of Examen during a low point in my mood. I didn’t feel like putting the work into changing how I was feeling and was caught by the description that it could help us to refocus our hearts and minds.
