the devotional was printed again , the second of countless versions and editions to come .
When asked about the success of the book and why people would continue reading it and passing it to others , Lettie always replied , “ Streams in the Desert was born . My other books were written .”
There is no way to know the multitude of lives God has blessed through Streams in the Desert since its original publication in 1924 . But an OMS missionary shared this , a truth we continue to hear from readers : “ Despite the fact that Streams was written 100 years ago , it still speaks today .”
