Amy Carmichael was an extraordinary missionary during the late 1800’s. What helped was growing up in the place of rest in God.
“Early in the 1888 Mrs Carmichael (Amy’s mother) called the children into the dining room one evening to tell them that nearly all of their money had been lost. They knelt together around the table as she committed the matter to God. What seemed overwhelming did not overwhelm her, for she believed that there was nothing she could not expect His wondrous kindness to do. “He has been so kind about other things that we cannot doubt but that He will care for this too.”
