 <\/p>\n

Prodigal: \u00a0I am spending time with your family!<\/p>\n

Me: \u00a0Yeah she is sweeter than baby’s breath.<\/p>\n

Prodigal: \u00a0I agree!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is from the book Great Women of the Christian Faith by Edith Deen<\/p>\n

This is written by Mary Slessor who was a Scottish factory girl who served as a missionary in Calabar for 38 years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My life is one long daily, hourly, record of answered prayer. \u00a0For physical health, for mental overstrain, for guidance given marvellously, for errors and dangers averted, for enmity to the Gospel subdued, for food provided at the exact hour needed, for everything that goes to make up life and my poor service, I can testify with a full and often wonder-stricken awe that I believe God answers prayer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can give no other testimony. \u00a0I am sitting alone here on a log among a company of natives. \u00a0My children, whose very lives are a testimony that God answers prayer, are working around me. \u00a0 Natives are crowding past on the bush road to attend palavers, and I am at perfect peace, far from my countrymen and conditions, because I know God answers prayer. \u00a0Food is scarce just now. \u00a0We live from hand to mouth. \u00a0We have not more than will be our breakfast today, but I know we shall be fed, for God answers prayer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Proverbs 13:7<\/p>\n

One pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.<\/p>\n
