As a missionary pilot's wife, Ruth encountered many struggles when her way seemed the most logical and safe; however, God had His own plans for Ruth's life and ministry. When her husband was gone on lengthy flight missions and she was alone; when she wasn't able to speak the language to communicate with the women and children of the villages; when fear crippled both her productivity and ministry: these events would have gone differently if Ruth had her way, but she later saw those same events as definitive ways God was teaching her obedience to His will.
