Green Beans with Rays of Sunshine

March 3, 2010 By Kristen Feola

Green Beans with Rays of Sunshine

Green Beans with Rays of Sunshine

I made this recipe for the first time on a day in March. The weather was turning warmer, and I had major spring fever. That night, when I served the green beans at dinner, I told my husband I was having trouble coming up with a creative name to describe this dish. He took one look and immediately blurted out, "Green Beans with Rays of Sunshine." I liked it, and so the name stuck.

girl reading bible“Before you pray, bow quietly before God, just to remember and realize who He is, how near He is, how certainly He can and will help. Just be still before Him, and allow His Holy Spirit to waken and stir in your soul the childlike disposition of absolute dependence and confident expectation.” – Andrew Murray
