The cost of declaring his glory to the nations

HelenRoseveare

I heard Helen Roseveare speak forty years ago. Her story has stayed with me ever since.

Recently I found these messages on the Urbana site. 

In them she shares candidly of personal tests and trials she underwent while serving as a medical missionary in the Congo (now Zaire), including pride, marital longings, prolonged illnesses, and beatings, rape and imprisonment by rebel forces.

The cost of declaring the glory of the Lord Jesus costs all our heart, soul and body. "The branch," Roseveare says, "had to lose its leaves and flowers to become an arrow;" such is the privilege of sharing in the sufferings of the Lord Jesus.
