Pause + Pray

The Precious Fallow

man walking on board walk through fields.

Reflect

When you think of the indwelling of your spiritual life, do you see different seasons at play? Growth spurts, slower times? Today, reflect on how every season has great value.


Pray

Sometimes what feels like emptiness
is a precious time of being fallow.
Our spirits require rest
before the next burst of growth.
Not needing to force anything,
letting go of pushing and striving,
we simply keep our eyes upon you, God.
In this season, we trust our faith grounds us.
Our heart-roots deepen.


Act

Go for a walk today and if possible observe the roots of trees or plants, how solidly they stand—and know that your heart, too, is held within God’s love, steadfast.
