Olga Robertson Part 2

Anne Bradstreet was a young Puritan woman with ink-stained fingers and a heart full of dreams. Growing up in 17th-century England, she found solace in her father’s library. Anne felt a God-given calling to express herself through poetry. Her faith grew stronger after a battle with smallpox as a teenager. The suffering drew her closer to God.Anne married Simon Bradstreet, a man of wisdom and quiet strength. He saw the gift God had placed within her and encouraged her to write.Together, they journeyed to the New World, settling in the rugged wilderness of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Anne clung to her faith and found comfort in poetry. She poured her heart onto parchment. To her, Anne's words were an act of worship.Then came the fire that consumed her home. All her family's earthly possessions were turned to ash. But rather than letting grief consume her, Anne turned to God. Through her sorrow, she penned verses of trust and surrender. Her resilience and unwavering faith became a light to many. Soon, her brother-in-law took Anne’s poetry to England, where it was published, making her the first published female poet in America. Though she never sought fame, her words carried weight, offering insight into faith, perseverance, and the unique struggles of womanhood in a rigid Puritan society.As the years passed, Anne remained devoted to writing, using her gift to leave a legacy of faith. Anne's words, shaped by both sorrow and hope, continue to inspire generations.Tricia Goyerhttps://triciagoyer.com/books/Anne BradstreetAnne Bradstreet–The Complete Collection (Kindle Edition) by Anne BradstreetThe Poems of Anne Bradstreet (Christian Heritage Paperback) by Anne BradstreetGreat Women in Christian History by A.
