- This fascinating documentary presents the events of Gladys' life, chronicled by Carol Purves, author of Chinese Whispers: The Gladys Aylward Story and accompanied by photographs, illustrations, and recordings of Gladys' own voice.
Gladys Aylward (1902-1970) may have been small in stature at barely five feet tall, but she was a giant of conviction! Even Hollywood was amazed by her story and made a movie about it, entitled The Inn of the Sixth Happiness. This fascinating documentary presents the events of Gladys' life, chronicled by Carol Purves, author of Chinese Whispers: The Gladys Aylward Story and accompanied by photographs, illustrations, and recordings of Gladys' own voice. Young Gladys sensed a calling from God to leave London and go to minister in China. She worked as a parlormaid for many years until she had enough money saved for her passage. In 1930, she boarded a train and after many weeks and harrowing situations, she finally reached her destination. In China she assisted aging missionary Jeannie Lawson. Together they opened an inn for mule drivers and told them stories about Jesus. After Mrs. Lawson died, Gladys began to take in unwanted children, eventually numbering about 100. With Japan invading China full force, Gladys and the 100 children traveled for days on foot across the mountains to safety. Gladys continued her work with children until her death in 1970. See how this ordinary woman experienced the extraordinary, simply because she said "yes" to God.

I read her book The Small Woman about 15 years ago. It affected me greatly! She gave her whole life to the Lord,, and suffered much for it. The book since then though I've read 100s since is my very favorite!
Is that the Title of her book?
Small Woman
What a powerful testimony....what powerful courage....what an unwavering faith...Truly God had chosen her for the task of missioning in China...what a path she forged through her faith....God bless her
I met Gladys Aylward's 'grandson' in a the park in Malak Darwin NT Australia - we were walking our respective dogs and the Spirit of God came to me to ask this 35yr? Man if he knew anything of Israel/ God and he said - his grandmother ? He wasn't Chinese? Gladys was his relative- But do you know Jesus/ God - ? well my grandmother was a famous missionary - and I had not heard of her even though the local Christian School Marrara had her name as one of the sports teams- I am a relief teacher - so he assured me if I Googled it I would find out about her. I consumed information of her life and 2 Values books I read to the students were parts of her life and speak powerfully of her faith and life. With Yehovah you can do all things - if you are willing. A few weeks later I met his brother who was house sitting for his brother and he confirmed it- I recognised the same dog - he affirmed it- they were from UK. I met the first man in the supermarket with his wife and baby son some time later and gave him a new copy of the book with the prison incident in it- they left the area not long after. I do pray that he and his family come into the saving grace of the Father through Jesus. I continue to speak hope into the hearts of the children when I do my relief teaching. Gladys was amazing !
@@soniavanderaa1366 I'm a bit confused about your story. Was he saying she was chinese? It sounds like he didn't know who you were talking about
I wish I knew about her when I was a missionary in Asia. Her tremendous sacrifice of self for others is beyond inspirational - something one can only do if you really have the love of God. I love how God taught her that His ways are not ours (thinking of her becoming the foot inspector and how that opened up doors into the community) and it’s a great reminder to myself. It’s amazing what God can do through one person who is willing! I wonder what happened to all her ‘children’?
Everyone needs to know about this remarkable woman, who gave up everything for nothing in return. When we can have more women like her the world would be a better one. I would be surprised if anyone who watches this movie is not taken in amazement. Courage, love and faith were her tools. Praise be to God for this woman who changed so many lives for good.
Hello how are you doing 😊
So touched with tears, her whole life is before God and us... God's glory shines through her life, an ordinary,small woman's life. Praise to God.
I loved this. What an amazing woman. I love that the Lord sees what we can do in him. She looked after, so many children. It gives us hope.
I’ve been so touched by this story, and amazed how God’s love could fuel the frail human soul to preach the gospel and give sacrificial love for souls on this earth.
"God doesn't call the qualified. He qualifies the called"
God doesn’t call call the qualified. He qualifies the called
Amen!!
HE's doesn't need our ability - He needs our AVAILabiiy.
Amen!
Amen Elaine Vandort
Simply superb ,got me into tears , what sacrifices people make for the gospel. We can atleast pray sincerely and consistently for missionaries.
Thank you for uploading this! It broke my heart. How much more are we accountable to God for the souls, living with so much comfort...
delightful inspiring story.
Truly convicted, inspired and my heart changed by the journey of faith by Gladys. Such sincere devotion and selflessness ♥️
What a beautiful, moving story! Such an admirable person ❤
Excellent movie !!!
I am so grateful that stories of modern hero’s of the faith are available here. Such an encouragement, such a tug on the heartstrings!
I read the book Inn of the 6th Happiness and saw the movie too.Her life story would make an amazing series .
I agree wholeheartedly! With so much junk on television, a series would be inspiring, to say the least! Maybe it would turn some hearts to Jesus! 😇🙏
I’m so glad I stumbled upon this amazing story. Although there are no coincidence, I believe HOD led me to this 🙏
What a compelling story about God’s love for humanity.
Beautiful documentary! Gladys Aylward is one of my most favorite missionary heroes! Her story is so encouraging and inspiring to me! 💜
Wow! What an awesome Christian. I had never heard of her before. Thank you for telling her story.
Thank you for posting this movie, it is an encouragement to live more for my Lord and Savior and to win souls for him.
Baby Shark has > eight billion views. This is among the greatest stories nobody ever heard. I am the twelfth commenter. Lord have mercy.
Few are chosen
This is how the Lord works. Through the humble, the weak, the obscure. The gate is wide to destruction and many go therein. But few come through the narrow gate. Don't be discouraged, for the Lord Jesus Christ is building the mansions of many such people, and those mansions will exist into eternity. The world's pleasures, on the other hand, are short and temporary and yield nothing in the life to come.
What is Baby Shark, or are you promoting your own 'thing'? What difference does it make what number commenter you are???
this track of comments had me laughing hard
I thought this about Gladys, what's happening here
Thank you - I was very touched by the story of this good woman.
Love love this
Beautifully told
Being a missionary is a great responsibility! A missionary must have great energy, fortitude, and courage. Wherever the missionary goes, no matter what part of the world he is in, he must spread the Word. Locals must understand what the missionary is telling them. The missionary must get the Word right! Therefore, every missionary must know the language of the local people! To everyone who is on a mission or preparing for one, I would like to recommend a very good workshop written by Yury Ivantsiv Polyglot Notes: Practical tips for learning foreign language. This wonderful book will give you answers how to properly learn a foreign language with a minimum of your time and effort. This book provides answers to many of the questions that everyone faces when learning a language. I wish you good luck in your important work!
Thank you
All for the love of God am touched
I read a book about this woman when becoming a missionary was super popular in the church.
Thank You LORD Jesus for providing this story on my feed to be reminded of Who You are. Thank You for strengthening my faith in You. In Jesus, Amen.
A real servant of God...marvelous woman.
How are you doing 😊
Wow great story ..Best Story to watch lockdown days instead of watching government media and watch ventilator and coffins and vaccine.
@one love
Amen from Germany
Since Fauci is on the hot seat by the Republicans for his dealings with the China Wuhan Lab, have you noticed less Covid Coverage? The Media is guilty for their lying and dirty dealings and for their part in false deaths and economic destruction on the world. "God will bring every act to judgement, everything that is hidden whether it is good( as Gladys) or evil" (as Fauci). Great documentary. As an older single Christian woman I am encouraged. Maranatha!
17 years with one book. The Bible.
Oh lord give us freedom, freedom in thee that some one might know how much you love them. ❤️
*Vision Video* Love it !!
True. With you on that one
such a beautiful strong lady. God loves all the children and sent Gladys to watch over them. her purpose was fulfilled. such an amazing story of courage, obedience and loyalty. thank you for sharing this. Evangeline
How are you doing 😊
@@bryanjason1980 I'm hanging in there. thankbyou for asking. lol I know someone with the name Bryan james lol
@@evangelinedrummer3615 Oh really I'm from key West Florida where are you from?
@@bryanjason1980 I'm from Tampa Florida. ive been to the keys several times. it's beautiful there but gets HOT. LOL
@@evangelinedrummer3615 I guess I would like if we get acquainted.. getting to know each other more better as friends hope you don't mind?
Thank you.
I’m a little hard of hearing. It would be great if when you play the audio of Miss Alyward you would put sub-titles. She is somewhat hard to understand. Thank you and God Bless
I saw the movie, Ingrid Bergman, played Gladys. Superb. "This old man, he had", lovely song sung by all the children as they came into safety. This lady was "A Servant of God", truly. Why hasn't the Roman Catholic Church stepped out of the box, and Canonize, create A Saint? Why? There was another British subject who was also a selfless Servant of God, Edel Quinn. The Church has FAILED to ACT. May Our God Bless Us All, Everyone. Together, hand in hand and heart to heart and feet with feet (The Body of Christ) in Christ Jesus The Lord. AMEN ALLELUIA. And Again I Say AMEN ALLELUIA.
She wasn't a Catholic; that's why she isn't canonized.
That’s one of my favorite movies!
@@davidjohnzenocollins that's why I said" why can't the RCC step out of the box? Huh? Jesus died on the Cross for all, not just RC's. Have you heard of Edel Quinn? She was RC. Irish missionary to Africa. Read up...e
@@evelynbyrd4961 There is no doubt that Gladys Aylward and Edel Quinn are saints. But the Catholic Church can't canonize them because they weren't Catholics. Simple. Their undoubted saintliness is irrelevant.
@@davidjohnzenocollins We shall see. The old ways are passing away. Just like Jesus said, in the twinkling of the eye. We shall see HIM coming in clouds and HE shall make ALL things NEW. AMEN ALLELUIA.
❤️
Amazing lady 🙏🙏
Hope this documentary could be translated into other lenguages
I am amazed by this beautiful and inspiring testimony. I want to learn how to show the love of my Lord Jesus Christ to others. The word of God says that “ “For my thoughts(A) are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”(B)
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,(C)
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts Isaiah 55:8-9 “ she prayed to God for a husband, but instead he gave her children’s in which brought more joy to her life and purpose. God is so faithful.
She was a big blessing
Wonderful LADY, beloved child of God !
Not ability but your availability to do His calling ❤
Her story is inspirational this woman lived for God
Oh she is such a magnificent person.
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the LORD from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Nikolaus Zinzendorf: " Preach the gospel, die and be forgotten."
I read her book and was forever changed by her courage. She showed me that you don't need a degree or missionary experience to be used by God. You just need love and obedience.
❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Like Katherine Kuhlman - He just needs yielded vessels
Amen🙏
Moira
From England.
Dear God,
Make me a yielded vessel. Thank You 🙏 Lord
.....and a useful vessel.
I was deeply touched by the story of Gladys and the children being stuck on the banks of the river. A girl said, "This is just like Moses crossing the Red Sea". Gladys snapped, "I'am not Moses and this is not the Red Sea!" The girl turned and said, "No, but God's the same." This brought me to tears. It's so true. Thank you Father that you never change!
A real encouraging story of faith back then and for now.
Amen, GOD IS ALWAYS THE SAME! GOD IS LOVE.
Just blown away by the faithfulness of this lady. I needed a handful of tissues. What
t an encouragement
It is so true, God is the same but we so often fail to realize. May God continue to bless you.
I agree!!!
These are the real heroes! not the Hollywood shoo- shaa
since covid isn't it wonderful not to hear about Hollywood?
💯
Very true
Amen a billion times
Hollywood is a container of dirt, not any mercy overthere.
I had been brought up with stories of Gladys Aylward from my mother as she also was a missionary called by God to Africa. I just wept overwhelmed with the woman's life and how God used her. My mother also faced incredible obstacles and things in her life journey with the Lord. Now I suspect both she and Gladys will meet in heaven now.
Gladys Aylward visited our school in Hull East Yorkshire England in around 1966 (I was around 11 years old at time). I was mesmerised by this very slight lady when she told us all about the horrors of binding of Chinese childrens feet. I feel so honoured to have been in her audience.
Wowww. You are so blessed to have seen her
She visited my school in Merseyside, l was so in awe , l didn't ask a single question.
😮😇
That’s awesome 🙌🏻
I've never heard of her, I watched
THIS WOMAN??!! Puts most if us to Shame!
PEOPLE!! ITS NOW OUR TURN TO PICK UP THE MANTLE
Walking for days thru mtns with soo many children. Amazing
I cried and was in awe of this woman obedience to God. She did not waiver but trust God through it all. She did not desire the worldly goods of this world or its comfort. Only God's will.♥️
I thought about how little she had and couldn’t help but think about all that I have even though I have downsized quite a bit! I didn’t sell anything; I donated to nonprofits and neighbors....people who really needed those things. I’m surprised of how much stuff I can do without!
I’m so grateful for this documentary; I wish there was more like them. God is so good! 😇🙏
When a person puts their trust in GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL GUIDE AND COMFORT THEM in every area of their lives. With caps as emphasis, a prayer of surrender to GOD using JESUS CHRIST AS THE MEDIATOR to urge the broken, wounded, empty, desperate and guilty to be mended, healed, filled rescued, and pardoned by HIM.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their door until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
WOW, THIS MAKES ME REALIZE THAT IN MY 52 YEARS I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING FOR THE LORD COMPARED TO THIS WOMAN AND OTHERS THAT HAVE GIVEN THEIR LIVES COMPLETELY TO THE LORD'S WORK.
My Sister/ Brother in Christ, you can surrender now ..even this very moment of your life is precious to God ❤
All glory to God ! He is a faithful God, He did lead and direct Gladys and He will also lead every single one of us who truly trust and put our faith in Him!
Let others see Jesus in you and in every little thing you do .....
Yes, Jesus.
Amen to that
Oh Lord, only I can reflect Christ as you help me to do this. I'm weak but, I'm willing in Jesus Name amen.
Pray we EVER to r e m e m b e r , it be GOD, Who has got us this far. We live for and because of Him. We at best are but dust, yet we live under The Shadow of you wings. For He covers us with His feathers. '' under the shadow of the All Mighty ''.
Exodus 20:8-11 and Exodus 31:12-18 reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3.
Such an amazing powerful story of a brave Spirit filled woman. Very inspiring little woman with a big faith story. Shalom💕
Indeed a powerful story...ALL BECAUSE OF JESUS
I’ve been waiting for years to see this type of information about Ms. Gladys...years! Thank you.
At a Bible study in college I was asked: if you have a million dollars what would you do? Work with disabled people was my answer. No one would hire me. I saved for a year then quit my job and delivered the newspaper and reapplied. I was then hired and have been doing that work for 29 years.
As a young boy I watched the television program "This is Your Like" done with Gladys Aylward. It was a profoundly moving program and made a great impression on my life and faith never to be forgotten.
This wonderful woman went to our LORD the day I was born.
I read her book twice! A great documentary.
What an amazing missionary!
She now lives in glory with our Savior!
Hello there
Thanks for the thumbs up, how do you spend your spare time?
She is not with God as yet. She is in her grave awaiting the resurrection.
Amen.
Amen
What an amazing woman. So glad she realized God called her to China to speak and teach and serve.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful and inspiring video . Even the smallest of us can each do great things with God's help.
what a big faith she has. so touched. 原來台灣伯大尼是她建立的啊.
So true. Big faith
What a wonderful remarkable woman. Her love and devotion to God is what we all need to have.
Amen.
And Amen.
Amen
Thanks for your words it encourage me to take the step which I'm going to take.
Agreed. Now comes a prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to help others find THE WAY AT GOD'S MERCY, HIS LOVE GIFT IN JESUS CHRIST.

Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
LOVE this and the emphasis on our AMAZING God and his endless creativity! We can NEVER out figure OR figure out our Lord, for He alone provides the twists and turns and the multitude of details for the rest of our story to be complete. Gladys is another example of that!
I admire this humble soul so much.
She really made a difference to many lives.
God bless her♥🙏🌹

So true. Humble soul!
Amazing woman. Amazing story.. Amazing God
I was at Senior School when I met this beautiful woman called Gladys Aylward. I was in 'Aylward House' so we were chosen to meet her. Tiny lady dressed in Mandarin Clothes. Her smile was captivating... Amazing Lady!!
It touches my soul to see how God lift her up in every way as she went on continuing her journey with God alone .
Hello Geddy Julia
What a wonderful story of a great woman of faith. She proved that one can do any thing with the help of talking with God and with His love for us.

I Praised the Lord for showing me how He blessed Gladys Aylward in what He called her to do for Him. Thank you !
One direction. To please God.
Oh that we could all have that mentality
What an amazing servant of the Lord. So faithful. Thank you for this documentary, so well done.
Hello Kana Michelle
Just watch the movie staring Ingrid Bergman "inn of the sixth happiness'
It was a lovely movie that led me to read Gladys' book. What a blessing.
A beautiful creature who lived a beautiful, albeit difficult, life. Her work spreads like seeds in the wind, to this very day. Can't wait to meet her in heaven!
What an amazing Woman. I am truly grateful for her life of sacrifice and devotion despite all the challenges that she encountered. Really remarkable
What an amazing and inspiring story! I have a new hero!
me too!
Yeah we do💖🙏🏻
I am touched by her selfless love for ministry and to God...looked what two left feet of shoes did. Such sacrifice....in a world such as this, we need more Gladys Aylward. Thank you for sharing 🙏.
From two left shoes to a ministry of freeing girls from foot binding!

Thank you for sharing! I’ve been so blessed by the testimony of this Godly woman’s life, and what it means to die to oneself and give your life poured out as a living sacrifice to the Lord 🙏
Wonderful! Thank You Jesus for people like Gladys who simply desire to please You, Lord. As a child, I remember watching and enjoying the movie about her life. Then several years later, I was told the Gospel on tv and became a Christian 1976. It wasn't until many years later after Bible school and being a missionary that I again saw her movie and realized she was a missionary too and that God used her story to plant a seed in my heart.
Grand and fulfilling meaningful life. Praise God that she got pushed in that Christian gathering. God knows when to push us to HIM. LOVE IT.😊💚🙌
This autobiography of Gladys Allard is an amazing 👏
I wish they would make a remake of the movie that this inspired and make it close to how it was
I read the book - her story was SO miraculous, the unsaved wouldn't believe it - but Christians will be deeply moved by her courage.
I was so inspired by this wonderful lady Gladys Aylward missionary work in China, especially when the BBC N BRITISH GOVT has been bashing n demonising China with false accusations.
Pray that PEACE WILL COME BETWN BRITISH GOVT N BBC WITH CHINA.
Thank you very much for sharing Glady's life. It is inspiring and encouraging. Praying to be used by God for many to be saved.
Thank you! 艾偉德
Wow what a wonderful lady and inspiration. Thank you Lord. Amen 🙏🏻
How coincidental that a girl who travelled halfway across the world wearing two left shoes later becomes an official envoy of unbound feet.
Simple faith to accomplish big things for Gods glory. Very inspirationa.
Met Her at Hollywood 1st Presbyterian Church Amen
It touched my soul to see her trust in God and how God led her in his own way.
This is what each of the belieers in Christ Jesus should be. May Gods spirit work a great love in our heart for others.
Praise the Lord and thanks so much for her life as the gift to the Chinese and the Taiwanese people.
I'm a self-supported missionary living in Taiwan I'm watching this video hoping it will give me the strength to continue serving.
It's been 15 years. Never planned on coming here but God asked me to come and so I did
VERY GREAT STORY THANK YOU FOR SHARING IT AND MAY GOD BLESSE YOU AND KEEP YOU GOING IN JESUS NAME
Have never heard of her before. South Africa.
God can use anyone if they say yes yo him and walk the journey he has for them. If you are 7, 27, or 70, God can use you. Its his love you emit that is so very important.
I read her book many years ago. She is my hero!
The film is my favourite.
Listening to Gladys story,it shows with gods guidance anything is possible 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
