Stop For the One “Obedience out of love is joy,” six words from Heidi Baker that are vividly displayed in her life. Sadly, not many are able to say this. Time after time, God calls lukewarm Americans to serve His children, either where they are at, or far away. Time after time, they say no thank you, that they would rather live an undisturbed, civilized life. They say no to God.

At the beginning of the passage, “When Mr. Pirzada came to dine,” Lilia says, “I didn’t mean they were missing. I meant he misses them. They live in a different country, and he hasn’t seen them in a while, that’s all.” Even though she has had multiple chances to talk to Dora and her parents about the war in Pakistan and the impacts it had on Mr.Pirzada, she doesn’t bring up the issue or try to inform them about it. This is because Lilia didn’t try to history of her motherland until she met Mr. Pirzada, thus she knows Dora won’t be interested or can relate to the issue as Dora is an American.
