My beautiful daughter turns 24 today, and she is answering her call from God. She is spending her third birthday in a row in Liberia Africa, helping the people there to learn how to lead a more healthy and productive life, and to learn more about the love of Jesus Christ. I am so very proud of her and what she is doing. It has been a desire of her heart since 1990 at the age of 4, when she learned about missionaries who went to Papa New Guinea. A fire was lit in her heart at that time, and God has helped her to fulfil that desire by serving in Liberia. I do worry about her, but know she is in the perfect arms of God, and know she is doing His will, so I only worry a little. And I miss her so very much. Especially every year on her birthday. I wish I could just see her and hug her and tell her Happy Birthday today.
