Understanding Diabetes Through Faith & Science
What is Carbohydrate Counting?
Carbohydrate counting is a meal planning technique that helps manage blood glucose levels by tracking carbohydrate intake. This systematic approach honors the body as God’s temple while working with medical science.
Stewardship of Health
Managing diabetes can be seen as faithful stewardship of the body God has entrusted to us. Understanding how foods affect blood sugar helps us make informed choices in partnership with our healthcare team.
Community & Support
Walking through diabetes doesn’t have to be lonely. Building community with others who share both faith and health challenges provides encouragement and practical wisdom for the journey.

Weekly Devotions for Health Journeys
When diabetes feels overwhelming, remember that God’s peace surpasses understanding. Managing a chronic condition requires both medical diligence and spiritual trust.
Reflection: How can you find peace while still being diligent about your health management today?
Daily diabetes care can feel burdensome, but God promises strength for each new day. Every blood sugar check and meal decision is an opportunity to practice faithful stewardship.
Prayer: Ask God for strength to be faithful in the small daily tasks of health management.
While diabetes presents challenges, it can also teach us dependence on God and gratitude for each healthy day. Modern medicine is one of God’s provisions for our care.
Practice: List three things about your health journey you can thank God for today.
Stories of Faith & Healing
“Learning to manage my diabetes has actually strengthened my faith. Every day I’m reminded of God’s intricate design of our bodies and His provision through medical knowledge. My church family has been incredibly supportive, and I’ve found purpose in encouraging others facing similar challenges.”
“When I was first diagnosed, I felt angry and scared. But through prayer and connecting with other believers managing diabetes, I’ve learned to see this as part of my story, not the end of it. God has used my experience to help others, and I’ve never felt closer to Him.”
