You’ve felt it—love so strong you ache with the fullness of it as if you’re trying to contain a power ten times your size and are unable to do so. Where does such powerful love come from? What is there beneath the surface we sometimes sense but rarely hold? Is there a greater reality around and within us, a uniting energy going far beyond our classical definition of ͞love͟?
Through walking the ancient symbol of the labyrinth, in Finding Love’s Way, we explore a wider world where God, ourselves, and love are inseparable one from another, where we see ourselves as beings of divine light, and that even with all the joy and loss we experience, we can never truly be separated from what binds us together: the truth of who we already are and the reality that love itself can be the journey.
We so often shut God in boxes of our own understanding and then get upset when He breaks out of them. For all of us who have longed to break out of those boxes, to recognize God in all of life’s diversity, and to see from a wider perspective, Sarah Katreen Hoggatt leads us on a wild journey. A testament of deep truth, her third and final installment in the poetry trilogy opens us to see something new of the Divine as she writes about honestly talking with God, the ways in which we shape one another, and the beauty of our bodies and the natural world in which we live. In words both powerful and poignant, Sarah asks the questions we would all like to raise and the answers she gives are as surprising as they are refreshing. With illustrations and poetry blending beautifully together, this book will captivate you in paradoxical truth and entice you to take another step closer to love, will teach you the beauty of letting go, and how to hold on to all that matters.
There are times in our lives when the presence of only one person will satisfy the hunger in our souls, when only one can fill the void of deeper meaning. This search crying aloud in every heart is what draws us out to gaze heavenward in awe at the millions of stars shining above. The beauty of the stars reminds us of this One along with his great power and unfathomable glory. What we sometimes don’t realize, though, is God stands there with us, gazing not at the stars, but at our upturned faces with deep, passionate love in his eyes. This God who holds the moon in his hand uses the same hand to turn us to him so we can view his outpourings of grace for ourselves.
This miraculous and intimate relationship God wants to have with you is worshipfully explored in the poetry of In His Eyes, the continued story of Learning to Fly, crafted by the gifted and talented poet, Sarah Katreen Hoggatt. Within these pages you will hear the voice of God speaking into your heart what he has longed for you to hear, a story of transformation and delight in the wonderful person he created in you. As he holds you close, enjoy his presence, look up into the endless sea of stars, and lose yourself in the majestic love shining from his eyes.
Have you ever felt the longing inside of your heart to explore new heights of sky, to rise on lifted wings? Have you ever longed for more than what you know? In her first book of poetry written over eleven years, Sarah shares her gift as a writer by revealing a journey of learning to fly in a world full of challenges, tears, and immeasurable joy. Her honest and candid spirit gives the reader such a sense of deeper vision and intimacy with the Lord, that they are compelled to discover the flying lessons within themselves. As she shares her heart and growth of self, may you be lifted up on the dawn and shown the way to fly home, viewing wild vistas as you have never viewed them before.
