In as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Rachel Dorland lives by this Scripture. After giving birth to twins who keep her up all night, she cares for them and her eleven-month-old son joyfully. She even finds time to sew clothes for the community's needy children.
But Mrs. Gump from the Ladies' Aid Society is about to test Rachel's dedication. Soon Rachel finds herself caring for four motherless children, besides her own, and, if that weren't enough, Mrs. Gump sends another three for her to watch while their mothers work.
By and by more folks, find Rachel's door, thanks again to the insensitive Mrs. Gump. Rachel is so tired she can barely think, but how can this misplaced angel turn away her Lord?
VERALEE WIGGINS has been a favorite of Heartsong readers for a long time. With nine Heartsongs to her credit, she said, 'I want my readers to know that God loves them much more than any earthly person does, and desperately wants them to love Him, too. I want to show that following Him is the best and happiest way to go.' Through her books, she wanted to increase the reader's faith.
VeraLee went home to be with the Lord on December 24, 1995, and will be sadly missed. She has since been inducted into the Heartsong Hall of Fame.
