“If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.”—Psalm 139:9-10
Ann Judson (1789-1826) became a great woman of God through the work of the Holy Spirit and her godly husband, Adoniram. As the first American missionaries, the Lord worked through incredible and unique providences to give this pioneering missionary couple a lasting testimony in the world of missions. Their service in Burma (modern Myanmar) stands as a godly heritage for its thousands of believers. Her story is a great encouragement in the faith to all Christians today. Pages: 20.
