Did Jesus Call Sarah Young?

She goes on to describe more experiences quote our combined ministries

Subjected our family to intense spiritual warfare and I prayed for protection every morning

One morning as I prayed I visualized God protecting each of us I pictured first our daughter then our son and then

Steve and circled by God's Protective presence which looked like a golden light when

I prayed for myself. I was suddenly Enveloped in bright light and profound peace

I lost all sense of time as I experienced God's presence in this powerful way

I had not sought the experience But I received it gratefully and was strengthened by it

God had prepared me for stepping into deep darkness by first bathing me in his glorious light

I realized that experiences of God's presence were not only for my benefit

But we're also preparation for helping others in quote Sarah Young's Jesus calling introduction page 10 to 11

Now this light experience is how she says she is equipped for stepping into darkness

Fighting it and doing the good work of helping others Yet scripture contradicts this experience when it says that it

Scripture is what equips us for serving and helping others 2nd Timothy 3 16 and 17

That Christ is the light John 8 to 12 The actual living person who we draw people to not a mere presence

These experiences with this presence is obviously a big influence in her life

I cannot say whether these occurrences actually took place But I can judge why they are included in the introduction of these devotions

Usually we relay or describe experiences to convince others of something So in this case

Sarah Young is including these experiences to convince you Herself and I that she does belong to God that he comforts her and speaks to her
