6 | Rooted Moment - You’re Not Behind: Trusting God’s Rhythm in the Garden and Life

Do you ever feel like you’re falling behind—in your garden, your faith, or your life?

In this short reflection, I share a moment from my own garden, a story about bees and beans, and a reminder from Jonah about shade, surrender, and timing. You'll walk away with a renewed trust that God’s rhythm is already at work—even when you can’t see the fruit yet.

Whether you're mid-season in your garden or just weary from the pace of life, this is your gentle reminder:

You’re not late. God’s not in a hurry. And grace is growing under the surface.
