‘I can’t see! It’s dark everywhere. What place is this? Where am I?’Jeya was only four years old and was terrified as she tried to peer about the dark and gloomy temple. Between the pillars was a huge stone body. She shivered when she saw its face. This, she knew, was Kali, the goddess of death and destruction. Why was Jeya there? Who would leave a little girl in the dark like that? Certainly not the God of love – he sent a woman to rescue these children from destruction – Amy Carmichael. And she had been a little girl herself once a little girl with long dark hair, and deep brown eyes. Once she had even begged God to make them blue – but he hadn’t. And as Amy leaned over to pick little Jeya up and rescue her from a life of temple–slavery – she was very glad that God hadn’t listened to her prayers. Blue eyes were not the eyes of India – but Amy’s brown eyes were.  The Trailblazer’s series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today.  This gripping and astonishing story from Kay Walsh will challenge young readers to trust God as Amy Carmichael did. A well–known and long–standing series:Over 50 titlesGreat for ages 9 to 14Published in 14 languagesHalf a million books soldAlso available in box sets when one book is not enough! 7 themed box sets, each with 5 booksEach biography follows the trailblazer’s journey to faith, and on to the work that God had planned for them.
