If you think Donn and Daisy were the kind of people who grew up thinking, "I want to be a missionary when I grow up," you would be mistaken. They were "homebodies," having no desire to serve the Lord anywhere except in the United States of America. Diary of a Call gives you a peek behind the curtains at the agonizing months and years of prayer and soul searching that preceded their surrender to God's Call. You'll see the many ways the enemy tried to interfere... As the Apostle Paul said, because a wide door for effective service has opened to me [in Ephesus, a very promising door of opportunity], and there are many adversaries. Serious health issues attacked them, sometimes tempting them to believe their poor health would be too great a hindrance for them to go Japan. Later, Donn was told that Japan was one of the few countries to which OMS doctors would have approved him to go because of their excellent health care system. When her health deteriorated, Daisy learned of a man who had been told, "If you go to (that country), it will kill you." The man responded, "It is necessary that I go. It is not necessary that I live." Her battle statement became, "Satan, I'm going to answer God's call even if it kills me." Instead, her health was renewed by the diagnosing and treatment of a previously unknown condition.A beta reader for this book told Donn and Daisy recently, "We hear precious little about the cost of obedience in Christian's lives today. Thank you for allowing your readers to experience the beauty of your love for the Lord as fuel for your obedient life of service. May every reader be drawn past your story to a greater desire to know, hear, and follow Jesus." May it be so.
