Ministry Assistant
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.
The ringing hammer and whirring saw blade have me thinking about renovations in my own life. I want the updated character and a more beautiful external appearance, but I often want it right now and don’t want to do the required work.
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.
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.
