Amy Carmichael was a missionary and writer who dedicated her life to serving others, particularly in India. She was known for her deep faith and commitment to helping those in need, especially young girls who were at risk of being forced into prostitution. One of her most famous poems, "If thy dear home be fuller, Lord, for that a little emptier. My house on earth, what rich rewards. That guerdon were," reflects her belief in the importance of sacrifice and selflessness in serving God.
