"I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry." Psalm 40:1
There are days Lord when I wonder where you are. Days when I feel all alone and no one cares, days when I have no sense of direction and then I cry out to you and I feel your presence and I know that I am not alone. Thank you for hearing my cry, for helping me know that even in my times of despair you are always there.

About the Book
Why the title My Alabaster Box? A few years ago a friend of mine handed me a gift bag for my birthday and as I pulled out a small pink glass box, I thought this is really nice something to put my rings in. She had me turn it over and on the bottom was a sticker with the words “pure alabaster” and the note with the box said “Happy Birthday to a dear lady who understands giving God everything.” Just like the story in Luke 7:36-50 where Jesus forgave the sin of the woman who poured oil from an alabaster box on to his feet and dried it with her hair. He forgave me much and I want to pour my life out at His feet everyday and live for him. His word has touched my heart and forever changed me; it is my hope that it does the same for you.
