An Epitaph

written by Karen Watson (missionary murdered in Iraq)

When God calls there are no regrets. I wasn't called to a place; I was called to Him. To obey was my objective, to suffer was expected, His glory my reward, His glory my reward . . .

The missionary heart:
Cares more than some think is wise
Risks more that some think is safe
Dreams more than some think is practical
Expects more than some think is possible.

I was called not to comfort or to success but to obedience. . . .

    That is the perfect idea!

    What kind of texturizer do you use?
    I'm hesitant to invest in something that doesn't come recommended.

    You should come to Oklahoma or I should come to Alabama...
    I forgot how fun you are!
    (I hope that didn't sound rude, I tend to lack tact when I say things...but I meant it in a lovely way.)
