Reader Voices: My heart is on a mission

Our daughter’s first email from "the field" was lengthy and glorious to read. She said she will probably never again write one that long but she had so much to tell. She is meeting more new people and in her words, “experiencing more of the real world than anything else she has experienced.”

Prayers offered for missionaries are much more personal now. I am deeply thankful for all of the new people in my daughter’s life who help calm the part of my heart that is with her by watching over her, guiding her, feeding her and loving her. I am especially thankful for a wise and loving Father in Heaven who knows our hearts and exactly where they are.

Penny Bowler has considered herself to be a writer almost ever since she discovered the power of words. So far she is an unknown writer but looks forward to changing that. Her family can attest to the fact that she is rarely at a loss for words.
