How do you know God answers prayer?Rosalind Goforth writes, "When in Canada on our first furloughs, I was amazed at the incredulity expressed when definite testimony was given to an answer to prayer. Sometimes this was shown by an expressive shrug of the shoulders...sometimes more openly by the query: 'How do you know that it might not have happened so, anyway?'"The stories in this book are Rosalind's answer to those doubts.

How do you know God answers prayer?Rosalind Goforth writes, "When in Canada on our first furloughs, I was amazed at the incredulity expressed when definite testimony was given to an answer to prayer. Sometimes this was shown by an expressive shrug of the shoulders...sometimes more openly by the query: 'How do you know that it might not have happened so, anyway?'"The stories in this book are Rosalind's answer to those doubts. She tells of her family's ministry on the front lines of the Boxer Rebellion of 1900, God's comfort and protection on the mission field, and their repeated rescue through the prayers of people at home whom God moved to pray at just the right time. Rosalind reminds us that there is no trouble too small for God, and that He loves to answer our prayers. "As truly as I delight to be sought for by my child when he is cold or hungry, ill, or in need of protection, so is it with my Heavenly Father." She wrote in hope that you, too, will be able to say from a full heart, I know God answers prayer.Rosalind Goforth (1864-1942) was raised in Montreal, Canada, and graduated from the Toronto School of Art. Together she and her husband Jonathan served as Canadian Presbyterian missionaries in China and Manchuria from 1888 to 1934. The Goforths had eleven children, five of whom died in childhood. Rosalind authored several books, including Goforth of China, a biography of her husband, and her own memoir, Climbing: Memories of a Missionary's Wife.
Autorenporträt
Rosalind Goforth (6 May 1864 - 31 May 1942) was a Presbyterian missionary, and author.[1] Born Florence Rosalind Bell-Smith near Kensington Gardens, London, England, she moved at three with her parents to Montreal, Canada. Her father, John Bell-Smith, was an artist, and she also intended to go into art. She graduated from the Toronto School of Art in May 1885, and she began preparing to return to London that autumn with the intention of completing her art studies. Instead, however, she married Jonathan Goforth on 25 October 1887 at Knox Presbyterian Church, Toronto, Canada, and they both served God in Manchuria and China. They had eleven children, five of which died as babies or very young children. Rosalind died in Toronto, Canada, and is buried alongside her husband at Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Toronto.
