      About Candee

      Dedication

      This devotional is dedicated to my maternal grandfather who was passionate about organic gardening. If only I'd inherited more of your green thumb.

      Introduction

      As I write this, it’s summertime. Day after long day of hot temperatures, afternoon thunderstorms, mosquitoes, picnics in the park, swimming pools, and fresh vegetables from the garden.

      But the bounty on the table didn’t happen by accident. The ground was prepared and seeds planted. Watering, weeding, and thinning took up more time as we waited for the first varieties to ripen. And later this fall, we’ll be busy canning and freezing the harvest to carry us through the long, cold winter ahead. Then, once we start to see the first signs of spring, the cycle will repeat itself.

      I have found that life is like a garden, too. Complete with seasons of dormancy and growth, preparation and harvest. A winter, spring, summer, and fall of the soul.
