The Delight Of Truth, Psalm 119:9-16

Dear Friends and Family,

Often, we find ourselves in an area we could not have imagined.  God used others to guide me through the unknown world of publication with my first book released in 2019.  Since then, my desire to write of God’s truths has only strengthened.  1Peter 4:10 reads, “As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God”.  My prayer is to serve Him well in whatever capacity He provides.

Please help me celebrate the release of my 6th book titled The Delight of Truth: Psalm 119:9-16.  This is the second book in a purposeful walk through the longest Psalm in the Bible, originally shared as a Bible study in our women’s group at church.  Full of scripture, definitions, and questions to spur on your own personal application, it is available through the Amazon Book Store as an eBook, and in print as a paperback book.  I write, not as a scholar, but as a child of God, saved by His grace alone, desiring to know and understand my Lord and Savior.

I appreciate and welcome your feedback.  My desire is to encourage those I know to dig into the beauty of God’s word, to grow in understanding, knowledge, and application together, as we await our eternal home in His presence.  May you be blessed, challenged, and renewed in your soul by the delight of God’s truths.

Focus Heavenward, Sharyn

You know it's difficult to write about yourself. The most important fact I can disclose is that I'm saved by God's grace through faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. My desire is to live a life honoring to God in response for the gift of salvation I've been given. This is so much easier said than done! I struggle daily with right choices, right words, right thoughts, and right actions. My best and only defense against sin is the power of God in me and for that I am inexpressibly thankful. I have three amazing grown-up children who have responded to God's call in their lives along with their spouses. One of the great joys of my life is knowing my children and their families strive to serve and follow God. My grandchildren are another wonderful joy in my life! My husband and I are blessed with four beautiful grandchildren to date with another expected very soon on September 12th. We also are thankful for the comforting knowledge that an additional three of our grandchildren, a set of twins at three months gestation and a little boy, Isaac, at four and a half months gestation, are in our Savior's presence. I have attended the same church since the day my eyes were opened to Truth over thirty years ago. How fortunate it is to have been led by God’s hand immediately to a church body that follows the Bible, no man-made doctrines, just the Word clear and strong. My husband is my best friend, my confidant, my encourager, and I still can't believe how blessed I am by his example of love and generosity towards everyone around him. He is God-fearing, compassionate, and kind and I have learned so much from him. I am a daughter to my almost 92 year-old mother, sister to three brothers, a wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, aunt, great-aunt, neighbor and friend. That means, whomever is reading this, we probably have something in common! I love every unique role I have been placed in. I'm frequently stretched and sometimes feel like silly putty that wants to bounce right back into my comfort zone. My greatest ambition is to be a follower of Jesus; a light that shines for Him at all times, in all circumstances. So, there it is, a bit about me. I guess I was able to write about myself after all! However, my existence cannot be defined without Jesus Christ, my Lord and my Savior. His love has permeated my life to His glory and my eternal thankfulness.
