Thanks for visiting my diary. I've been journaling since 1984 and have chosen to share some of my entries online. They are not all positive thoughts, but I hope that reading them might be a blessing to someone who needs encouragement.

If you are just coming to my diary for the first time, please read my introductory entry, where I share some background that is important if you plan to follow this diary regularly.

Please also visit my music page, where you can hear samples from my debut CD, I Believe, which features songs written based on experiences shared in this journal.

SARAH'S SCRIBBLINGS

seeking closeness with God

I used to be a lot closer to You. I used to be able to feel Your touch and hear Your voice. I still hear Your voice, but it sounds far away, and I don't feel Your touch very often any more. I want to be anxious to tell people about You. I used to want to talk with Rachel and Jennifer. But now I'm afraid that I am losingthat desire and my relationship with You. I want it back. I know You said that if I seek You I will find You. You didn't say I had to look in the right place--You are anywhere I look. Lord, I need You to show Yourself to me, to open my eyes so I can see You.

"You said you can't feel me the way you used to. I am showing you a new way to see me, a new way to know me. I am teaching youto worship me.

"I am the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. The prisons you made can no longer hold you. Come out of the walls of darkness; for I have shown you the way. Come out; for the doors are unlocked. Prepare; for I reach for the glory of my Father.

"My children, the fight has just begun. Look to my Word and gather your strength, and I will show you the way.

"I'm coming. Open your hearts and bring forth my Word. Melt the hearts of wax and soften the hearts of stone; for time is of the essence."
