From the foreword by Elisabeth Elliot
As long as I can remember, I hoped the Lord would grant me the privilege of being a foreign missionary. My parents were missionaries when I was born, and we were given missionary books by the dozen. Many well-known missionaries were guests in our home, where we heard their stories firsthand and were inspired.
This little book seemed to set an utterly impossible standard. It was, however, the same standard I found in the words of Jesus: If you want to be my disciple, you must give up your right to yourself, take up the Cross, and follow.
Amy Carmichael, known to those who loved and worked with her as Amma (an Indian term of respect which can also mean "mother") was a true soldier of the Cross. I wanted to follow.

Über den Autor
Amy Wilson Carmichael (1867-1951) was the eldest daughter of a large Christ-centered family in Millisle, Ireland. She was impressed at an early age that "nothing is important but that which is eternal." This understanding proved to be a foundation for her service to the Lord, which began among the mill workers of Ireland while she was still in her teen years. Moving to England in 1889, Amy ministered to women in the Manchester slums and also became involved with the Keswick Convention. During these years "came a word I could not escape and dared not resist"--and in 1892, Amy became Keswick's first missionary appointee. Although leaving her family was painful, she followed God's call and served briefly in Japan and then in Ceylon, finally settling in India where she began her ministry to children in 1895. The Dohnavur Fellowship, the family that developed from her work, was devoted to saving children from lives of temple service. Amy wrote over thirty biographical and devotional books, many of which are considered classics. Injured and bedridden for the last twenty years of her life, she remained in India until her death.
