Do I Want to be a Missionary?

Posted on October 20, 2022October 20, 2022 by Pam

God is infinite – I am finite. He knows everything. He knows all but does not cause all. God did not create rebellion but Satan’s discontent based on pride did. The Heaven’s declare the glory of God. He is sovereign which, to me, means that He has the last word on everything. He is a person and you and I are created in His image. God is valuable and it compels me to choose Him. God is love, holy, righteous, just, wise, faithful, truth, good, merciful, and patient with me and you. Jesus is the revelation of the Father. I’m unwilling to say I’m wrong on this to accommodate anyone’s unbelief. Jesus came from the heart of God to return us to the heart of God. John 17:23, “I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, that the world may know that Thou didst send Me, and didst love them, even as Thou didst love Me”.

This is the outline on the notes I took, so far, this week on Don Prices’s sharing the Heart of God. I know so many who love the idea that God is love but what some do not realize is that God does not have to love us. He chooses to love us. I cannot add to the love God has for me by being “good” nor can I subtract from it by missing the mark on the good plan He has for every day of my life. Now, are you going to chose to love Him back? The theme here at Wiler is to know God and make Him known. Now you know and we believers in this wonderful God are already missionaries. I hope this telling touches your heart. God is speaking to me that I do not have to go looking for Him because He has always been there. Amen.

Pam writes so that must make her a writer. Recently retired, she can now fill days with family, friends, missions, writing, creating, and showing up for whomever needs her. Pam loves the Lord and people. The Bible is God’s love letter to us (and who does not need more love) so she studies and writes some more.

Pam lives in the Pacific Northwest but was home-grown in Southern California. She attended San Jose Bible College and finished a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry at UCLA. She became a teacher, then a Research and Development Chemist, then she built two successful real estate businesses in two states. Pam also pursued study at Fuller Theological Seminary and just completed six months serving in missions abroad.

Pam has two amazing children, married to two precious in-laws, and five sweet grandchildren. Pam is a gifted connector and communicator and the Northwest has the perfect climate for staying inside and writing – or baking! She has been writing since a wee one and is currently converting many years of blogging, by topic, into ten books. The first is a collection from 2011 titled, Beautiful Enough. The second is a yearly day-timer titled, Weekly Planner - Lessons in Life, Glory, and Grace. Number three is in progress with the working title, Christmas Today.

Ten facts about Pam in no particular order:

  1. On the team that developed an insulation for the Alaskan oil pipeline.
  2. Loves looking at homes, decorating, and has flipped five homes.
  3. Likes being tall.
  4. Films have helped define her vocabulary.
  5. Comes from Colorado tenement farmers with history traced to Wales.
  6. Was lost but now is found.
  7. Baking makes her happy – as does eating sweets with coffee, of course.
  8. She thinks mission work is the most important work in the world.
  9. The church started in Rome so she is learning Italian.
  10. Pam is a work in progress!
