Made for the Journey by Elisabeth Elliot

















Here is the book summary:

In her first year as a missionary to a small group of native women in the Ecuadorian jungle, Elisabeth Elliot faced physical and spiritual trials. In Made for the Journey, Elliot captures the mysteries and stark realities surrounding the colorful and primitive world in which she ministered. More than just a recounting of her early days, this is a beautifully crafted and deeply personal reflection on the important questions of life and a remarkable testimony to authentic Christian obedience to God.


And now, my review:
Made for the Journey by Elisabeth Elliot was a story that spun so many emotions in me.  Her knowing and living her appointed way and sharing with the reader about it was powerful to me.  As she moves along she shares all the Spiritual Truths that she discovered walking it out.  Like her “natural” way is to not trust God but to worry instead.  Also that God has given us the power to exercise our wills.  He has delegated it to us.  I loved this “Trust Me.  Never mind the answers to the whys just now – those are Mine.  Trust Me.”  “God’s story never ends with ‘ashes.’”  Having also journeyed to Quito, Ecuador, this holds a special place in my heart.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
