Book Cover & Preview Text
My Sanctuary
My Sanctuary is a place of peace and of new beginnings.
No more battles about my past,
No more wrestling matches about my addictions.
Removing my mask, no dishonesty and denial.
My Sanctuary
Is a place to understand myself and surrender my life—
Learning about my God,
Growing in spirituality, and developing my personal transformation.
My Sanctuary
Is a place where I go for comfort when I need support and encouragement—God is there.
I can trust and surrender.
When my pain and hurts are so overwhelming, I cry out “Thy will be done!”
I learn how to pray and meditate;
I study the word of God.
I learn about Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.
My Sanctuary
Is where I have learned what serenity means.
I learned about humility.
My faith, it grows
In my Sanctuary.
—Rev. Jewel Harper-Simon, MPA, MDiv
