I was moved by Gladys’s level of faith, humility, obedience and determination to serve God at any cost. She was convinced that God had called her to go to China to preach the Gospel and was undeterred by the criticism and contrary advice of others.
Believing that it was her calling from God, she was determined to make it to China by all means, trusting that God will meet all her needs. Her journey was filled with every kind of obstacle you can imagine, but these did not deter her. It was a testimony of God making a way where there seems to be no way.
She was humble and obedient and never once doubted that God was not there with her all the way. Her Life truly shined as an amazing example of being willing to submit and give it all for her Saviour. How amazing!
Kind regards,
Ope

"Wow - what an incredible woman, her faith, courage & total fearlessness
are truly amazing - setting out on her own, not even knowing where she
would end up & with very little money.
What a legacy those early missionaries left in China, before the onset
of communism!
The highlight for me was the story of the lama monastery, where she &
the Christian pastor from a village trekked for days into the mountains,
not meeting a soul and they stopped & sang choruses and then this man
appeared from the monastery, wanting to know about the God who loves.
Only God knows the seeds which must have been sown there.
I'm looking forward to the dvd night, although I doubt the film would
measure up to her wonderful story.
Thank you Sue for your choice - have enjoyed this book very much"
love Heather
