Erma
Miller is a female American hero because of her faith
in God, her obedience to the LORD, and her heart to
help others. Erma's faith in Jesus Christ causes a
lot of wonderful miracles to happen. Mrs. Miller's
autobiography, A Handful of Hair, An Answered Prayer,
reveals her obedience to the Holy Spirit in many
different ways. Her love for others has changed the
world's past, present and future. A female American
hero should always have the kind of faith obedience
and love that Erma Miller has.
Ever
since she accepted Jesus Christ into her heart at the
age of ten, Erma's faith in Him has caused "the
miraculous" to happen. Mrs. Miller miraculously
won a bid by $4.35 difference, and kept her technical
publication company working. Her two children
survived when a plane crashed into their school
playground. Her husband Glen, lived through a heart
attack and never had any further problems. After
President Kennedy's assassination, Lyndon B. Johnson
supported the space program, which kept Erma in
business. Also, a gentleman sold them his land in Hot
Springs, Arkansas for the Lake Hamilton Bible Camp,
when it was not even for sale. Mrs. Erma Miller is,
indeed, a woman of great faith and prayer.
Mrs.
Glen Miller obeys the LORD, even through the hard
times. She obeyed the Holy Ghost by selling her
business, although she was "number one" in
helping the United States government in space
projects. Then, she obeyed God when it was time for
her to move to a different state. She had to give up
all of her success, family and friends, because the
LORD gave Glen a vision to move to Hot Springs,
Arkansas. Heroes, like Erma Miller, obey Jesus
Christ.
Erma
has a helping heart. She helped the first man get to
the moon. Glen and Erma educated and employed many
people during the space program to the moon. They
also traveled around the world and ran a reel-to-reel
tape ministry for the Full Gospel Business Men's
Fellowship, before cassette tapes existed. Today,
they run a Bible camp that helps people. She has and
is helping her family, friends, and country.
The
qualities of a female American hero are evident in
the life of Erma Miller. Her character is made up of
prayer, obedience and kindness. The Bible states that
the greatest of these gifts in Mrs. Erma Miller is
kindness and love.
