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

very discouraged work ramblings

Maybe there's more You want to give me
Than I've ever known before,
More of Your goodness, more of Your power
Than I've ever asked You for.
Father, I come,
Asking You now.
Would You Pour out Your favor, Lord.
I'm crying out.

I want to be in Your blessing.
What I seek is what You do
In me and through me
To bring glory to You.
I want to be in Your blessing.
Whatever You may have in store,
I want to be in Your blessing, Lord.

There will be times when I'm frightened,
Times when I'm amazed,
When You're creating mifacle moments.
I need a heart that's full of faith.
Whatever comes,
Wherever You lead,
All that I want is what You want for me.

I want to be in Your blessing.
What I seek is what You do
In me and through me
To bring glory to You.
I want to be in Your blessing.
Whatever You may have in store,
I want to be in Your blessing, Lord.

As You lead me, please protect me
And keep me from evil along the way.
Don't let me forget I need You.
Every step of every day.

I want to be in Your blessing.
What I seek is what You do
In me and through me
To bring glory to You.
I want to be in Your blessing.
Whatever You may have in store,
I want to be in Your blessing, Lord.

I've only worked 16 hours this month. I'm scared, and I don't even know where my time is going. I know God is trying to talk to me, and I want to trust Him. He's shown me in little ways that He's here. Someone sent me samples of one of my meds, and now I have enough meds to last for six months. Could that be anything other than God talking to me, telling me He cares? But what about the big things? Where is He? Does He care about those too?

I should be taking all this extra time to work on my book projects. That's not very easy when you wonder why you're on this earth, if there is a place for you anywhere, whether anyone even wants what you have to offer...
