How would you respond if suddenly you lost your vision? Have you ever wondered what it is like to be blind, whether it really means that all you see is blackness? How would blindness affect your relationships and your spiritual life? Sarah Blake answers all of these questions and many more as she tells the story of her struggle to regain the sight she lost due to complications of an eye condition resulting from premature birth. Her conversational tone will draw you right into her living room, where she shares thoughts that most people wonder about but don't bring up for fear that they are too deep or personal for everyday conversation. Openness is a hallmark of who Sarah is, and she shares her own journey in order that it might encourage you in your own. Whether you are coping with the onset of disability or another personal challenge, Sarah's story will inspire you to persevere and grow because of your struggle.
