Hello

My name is Sally. I'm trying to keep this rather anonymous so you probably won't get anymore out of me than that. This blog is more or less going to be an online journal for me - we'll see if I'm any better at updating this than I am my paper ones. I am a Christian and this is mostly for me to try to make sense of my walk with God and I guess to kind of keep a record of my progress on His path. The URL for my blog comes from a Thomas Browne poem I always loved. I found it in a Madeliene L'Engle book and it's been a sort of "to live by" poem for me ever since.

If thou could empty all thyself of self
Like to a shell dishabited
Than He might find thee on an ocean shelf
And say, "This is not dead."
And fill thee with Himself instead.

But alas, thou are all replete with very thou
So that when He finds thee He says,
"Twere better let it be
It is so small and full
There is no room for Me."
-Thomas Browne

It's probably not exactly quoted as that was from memory but you get the idea.

I have a husband who is a youth minister and a small boy (age 3) but other that the occasional reference I probably won't dwell on them. This blog is, as stated, about me and God. Anyway, I hope if you manage to stumble across this, you will be encouraged by my walk.
In Christ,
Sally
