She was co-founder of the Oriental Missionary Society (later known as OMS International, and eventually the One Mission Society), and served as a Christian missionary in China and Japan, from 1901 until 1918, until her husband's declining health motivated them to return to the States.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Charles' condition failed to improve, Lettie began writing \u003cem\u003eStreams\u003c\/em\u003e as a source of comfort, based on the couple's newfound hardship and continued fellowship with the Divine. She never intended for the book to become famous, though many still find a revitalizing connection through \u003cem\u003eStreams\u003c\/em\u003e, because, \"it speaks so clearly to those who have difficulty relating \u003cem\u003etheir own sufferings\u003c\/em\u003e to the noble and eternal purposes of a loving and all-wise God.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCowman often said, \"I didn't write Streams.
