One hundred years ago today, a baby girl was born to medical missionaries in China. They named her Ruth McCue Bell. She said she never knew a time where she did not love the Lord. And it showed.

At her memorial service I gave what I believe are the reasons she turned into such a strong woman of God. Th joy of the Lord was her strength.

Early on she made Christ her center
Her home
Her purpose
Her partner
Her Confidant
Her example
and Her vision.

And we can all do the same. Christ invites us to do so.
