By Meng Hui I’m a believer in God. In the past, not taking my belief seriously, I didn’t gain much knowledge of God or have true faith in Him. It was not until God saved me from an illness that I saw His grace and mercy for me and became certain about Him, and thus had true faith in Him. It was one afternoon in August, 2002. On my way home after shopping for the groceries, I suddenly felt a…
By Jingxin After I returned home, my father told me, “Peipei has divorced.” Hearing this, I was astounded and asked in surprise, “When did that happen?” “Several days ago. The custody of their child was awarded to the father and she has brought all her dowries back,” my father said thoughtfully. After these words, I felt very puzzled: Peipei (my cousin) is beautiful and capable. When she married her ex-husband, their relatives and friends all looked favorably upon them. But…
By Jingxun There was an extended family, including my family, my parents-in-law’s family, and my brother-in-law’s family. Our three family owned our respective kitchens and rooms, and we crowded together into the house. Before we believed in the Lord, we often got into arguments over small matters. Every time we looked at each other, we got angry and pulled a long face. At that time, my husband and I had just started our business, and did not have much money.…
By Zheng Zhigang The Bible says: “Because you have made Jehovah, which is my refuge, even the most High, your habitation; There shall no evil befall you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.

Reading this scripture passage, I couldn’t help thinking of that day … One day in 2016, a brother and I drove to another city to do some…

By Li Min “Yes, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies: You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever” (Psalms…
By Xiaoxin The Bible says, “God is a refuge for us” (Psalms 62:8), and “A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you” (Psalms 91:7). In the past, when I read these words, I just verbally acknowledged that they are true but didn’t have real experience or understanding of them. It was not until I personally witnessed God’s great power and gained His care and protection at a…
By Xinmei During the boundary survey in 2018, my neighbor said that the land distributed to him should have been 6 mu (0.988 acre) but it was actually 5.5 mu. I thought that maybe we occupied more land than we should, so we gave 0.5 mu of land to him. The neighbor then planted a line of small saplings near the boundary between our land and his, and grew crops on the rest of his land. One morning after the…
By Wang Hua, Greece I worked as an accountant for a school. One afternoon in August 2007, about 2 o’clock, my colleague and I rode our motorcycles to go to the central school district to fetch books. He was talkative. At the beginning, I looked at the road ahead as I talked with him. Later on, I only cared about talking but didn’t look forward. Then, all I heard was a loud “bang,” and my motorcycle hit a dirt wagon.…
