Key Quotes “My emotions are God’s language to my soul… They are how God gets my attention.” - Sarah E.

Westfall “When I start to say, ‘God, where are you in the present?’I remember who God has been in the past.” - Sarah E. Westfall “God, who are you? Not who I want you to be. Not who other people say you are. Help me to see You for who You are in Your Word.” - Sarah E.
