Now and again you discover an author who God uses to change your life. Rarely does this happen. It has hapened to me recently. Whilst in Texas a new friend gave me a copy of Sarah Young's - 40 Days with Jesus. It is one of the best Daily Devotionals I have ever read. What makes this devotional different and refreshing is that it is written in the first person i.e. what Jesus might be saying to you. I was convicted Day One.
Sarah Young's ability to encouarge the reader to adopt a lifestyle of enjoying God's Presence and living a life of Thankfulness is like a breath of fresh air in an already busy world. The writing reminds me of that other classic "Practising the Presence of God" by Brother Lawrence. He would encourage the reader to practice the presence of God whilst washing the pots or cleaning the floor.
Sarah has also written 365 Days with Jesus which I also hope to get.
So if you can - watch out for Sarah Young.
