Review of the Book

This is definitely the best biography I have ever read! The main reason for that is that this biography had more of a story to it rather than just a bunch of facts. It was a very inspiring book. It gave out all of the little details that you wouldn't know by reading a plain biography. I would give the book a three out of five star rating, and for a biography, that is pretty good. The Author was Sam Welling, the copyright date was 1999 and it was published by Barbour Publishing Inc.

I am planning on reading another book by this author. Like I said above, it was a very good biography. He writes biographies about Christians that have a good importance, which is a category that I like. He has many other books about Christians in a series in which he calls,"Heroes of Faith." If the biography that I read is as good as his others, then I will definitely try and find his other books so I can read them.

My Obstacles and Risks

I've gone through many obstacles and risks throughout my life. I had a very big decision to make when I had to decide if I wanted to become a nun. There were many risks in doing this. I would never be able to see my friends and family again. There are many diseases in India and a lot of the other places we went, so there was a larger chance we would get ill and die before our natural life span was over. In becoming a nun, I also had to promise my life to God, and that meant no free time to go out and have a party or whatever. However, I must admit, choosing to become a nun was definitely worthwhile.

As I got older and got more involved in my Mission of Charity, I was very busy. I had to run a good orphanage, teach about Christ, help the poor and people in poverty, and do all this while running my missions. It was very stressful, and I got clammy quite often. I got major headaches and cramps. It was especially hard as I got into my old age, but I loved doing all the things I did that I kept pushing on until my death.

I was very fearful, I will admit that. When I taught the teachings of Christ many people laughed at me and spat at my face. Some even threw stones at my fragile, five foot body. I had to pray every time before I had a lesson, for I was so fearful that I would almost refuse to go in and teach. Yet, if I didn't teach these children of God about Christ, then who would? It was my job to do that, and I didn't let my fears get in my way.
