    About this audiobook

    From your heart’s deepest cry to life’s joyful praises, nothing is off limits to Jesus.
    Knowing Jesus on a deeper, more personal level means sharing all aspects of your life with Him…every day. In Dear Jesus, Sarah Young exemplifies what it means to do this—to dialogue with the Savior. She begins each of the 120 devotionals by sharing intimate struggles and longings that weigh on the heart—being preoccupied with problems; being dissatisfied with oneself, and other spiritual issues. Jesus then responds in His loving way by giving guidance and encouragement, using Scripture as the foundation from which His words flow. Readers will be drawn into the presence of God through these spiritual letters of grace.

      So wonderful! Filled with love, God’s promises. I listened while I did chores around my home and was inspired to do more chores. Surprisingly enough, I did things I have put off . I am inspired and feel loved !??

      I have read a few of Sarah Young's books and while they are encouraging and uplifting my only problem is that they are so ridiculously repetitive that really, you only need to pick one and not read them all.

      She has Jesus saying about 6 different things, and finds a way somehow to make 300 page books out of saying the same things over and over again just using different words of scenarios.

      She's good, but each book should and can be written differently or an a different aspect of Christianity or her journey.
