CHRIST the LOVE WARRIOR: “Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Rom 8:37). Amy Carmichael (1867–1951), served the Lord without furlough in India for 55 years. She served at Dohnavur in Tamil Nadu, which became a sanctuary for over one thousand children, many rescued from child prostitution. When the children were asked what drew them to Amy, they most often replied, “It was love. Amma (Amy) loved us.” She wrote: “I think of the love of God as a great river, pouring through us even as the waters pour through our ravine at floodtime. Nothing can keep this love from pouring through us, except of course our own blocking of the river. Do you sometimes feel that you have got to the end of your love for someone who refuses and repulses you? Such a thought is folly, for one cannot come to the end of what one has not got. We have no store of love at all. We are not jugs, we are riverbeds.”
