I want a Kara heart
soil soft and sown
with kindness wild
like butterfly weed
fragrant as a lilac in spring.

Kara’s blog: A Mundane Faithfulness.
In the stillness,
Sandy
Love is kind. ~ 1 Corinthinans 13:4
Note: Kara sees the unseen and will soon see the unseen. She writes: I feel too young to be in this battle, but maybe I’m not in a battle at all. Maybe I’m on a journey, and the journey is more beautiful than any of us can comprehend. And if we did understand, we would hold very loosely to one another because I’m going to be with Jesus. There is grace that will seep into all the cracks and pained places when we don’t understand. In the places we don’t understand we get to seek. And how lovely is one seeking truth. Amen.
Question for you: How would you complete this sentence? “I want to . . . “
Martha Orlando says
I want to love others as Jesus wants me to.
Blessings, Sandy!
Sandra Heska King says
Yes. And to understand what all that encompasses. I struggle with the line between loving and enabling. 😉
Michele Morin says
I want to be all that I should be — because of who Christ is.
Sandra Heska King says
Me, too, Michele! And to let Him make me what He wants me to be–not try to reach some ideal of and on my own. 🙂
Pamela says
I want to decrease so God can increase. How I love the Kara quote from above–nurturing hard hearts with kindness. Beautiful!
Sandra Heska King says
Amen, Pamela. Me, too. Me, too.
