Author: Sarah Walton

I'm a stay-at-home mom of 4 kids under 12 and have been continually learning in deeper ways what it means to follow Jesus Christ - no matter the cost. My husband and I have been given the unique calling of raising a child with some very challenging needs, as well as 5 of us battling Lyme Disease. Some days, it seems as though the burdens that we carry will destroy our family. However, as we seek Christ and learn to lean on Him through every struggle, we are being strengthened, molded, and learning to be more satisfied in Him alone. I am learning deep truth's of God's Word and hope to encourage and challenge others through what He has been teaching my family and me through this valley. May He alone be glorified in and through my words.
