And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus. ~~~ Philippians 4:19

我的神必照祂荣耀的丰富,在基督耶稣里面使你们一切所需用的都充足。 ~~~ 腓立比书 4:19

Whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive if you have faith. ~~~ Matthew 21:22

你们祷告,无论求什么,只要信,就必得着。 ~~~ 马太福音 21:22

Recently, I have read lots of news about Covid-19 raging in China. Watching Chinese are suffering makes me feel really sad. As Christian, we need to love others when we are being loved.

最近看了很多关于Covid-19在中国肆虐的报道,看见同胞们在国内受苦,我心里真的非常难受。作为一名基督徒,我们在被神爱的同时也要去爱别人。

I started to call my parents and friends to ask their spiritual, mental and life situations. Thanks for God! Through these conversations, I found our relationship hugely changed.

从二月一号开始,每天都会跟我父母和朋友打电话询问他们的情况 — 精神上、生活上以及灵魂上。感谢神!通过这些对话,我发现,我和他们之间的关系发生了很奇妙很巨大的变化。

With my parents, we started to have more spiritual support than physical care. God is using this plague to open a door for me to have a conversation about Jesus. Thanks for God! He softened my parents’ heart to hear my sharing of God’s stories peacefully.

和父母,除了物质之外,我们开始有很多的精神上的关心。神通过这次瘟疫为我们打开了一扇门,让我有不少机会和父母谈论耶稣。感谢神!让他们的心变软,让他们能够平静地听我分享神的故

My parents were also very happy for me to pray for them.

事。他们也很开心我为他们向神祷告。

With my friends, we changed to truly care about each other instead of making vulgar jokes. We started to encourage each other and talking about life.

和朋友们,我们变得真正互相关心,没有了以前的低俗玩笑,更多地开始互相鼓励以及对人生的探讨。

Meanwhile, I would use this opportunity to tell them my Christian identity and try to say “I will pray for you”. They said I am different. I am no longer being impulsive; no longer with the bad temper; no longer being stubborn.

同时,我也会借机向他们表达我是基督徒的身份,并且试着说“我会为你祷告”。朋友们说我不一样了!我不再冲动,不再有暴脾气,不再固执。

Yes! Thanks for the Lord! They saw my transform from God. I deeply felt being God’s witness. When people are facing suffering, death and struggling in this horrible plague, I believe God is showing His love in different ways among people.

是的!感谢主!神对我的改变真是可见的,我深深感受到作为主的见证。面对这次严重的瘟疫,在痛苦、死亡和挣扎之中,我相信神的爱也通过不同的方式显现在人们之间。

God has His best plans!

神有祂最好的安排!

Please pray with us for China! (My Bible Study group brothers and I are praying for China below)

请和我一起为中国祷告!(我查经班的弟兄和我在这里为中国祷告)

Brother Terry,

My dear heavenly Father, thank you for letting us gather together to pray for our home country which is facing horrible disease recently. Father, we pray for our family, our doctors&nurses and all the people who are suffering pain and fear in China and all over the world. Please comfort them, release their pain and give them coverage and recovery. We all so pray for all the people fighting at the frontline against the virus, please keep them safe and give them strength. We also pray that new therapy or vaccine that is able to cure the disease efficiently will come up soon. Father we love you as you love us always, please show your mercy and glory down to us! In Jesus name, we pray. Amen!

Brother Jeremy,

Dear Lord, thank you for keeping me safe and sound at the moment, yet my home country now is suffering virus, deception, and hopelessness. Lord, I pray for my family and friends, no matter where they are, what they are going to do, protect and guide them to beat the virus so as to survive this dark period. I pray for people who are fighting for everyone’s wellness and health, pray that your mighty power could take down any barrier on their way. I pray for everyone‘s happiness and physical health, then everyone will witness your mercy and keep loving you like the way you love us. In Jesus name. Amen!

Brother Gavin,

Dear Father! Thank you so much for giving us this great opportunity to pray. As we know, the Covid-19 is raging the whole world. Firstly, We pray that you would let the governments make the right decisions which could please you. Secondly,  please protect Christians from the virus and let them continue to be light and salt in the world and keep glorifying you without any influence. Finally, we know that all the sufferings we are experiencing are on your plans. They are your tests. I pray that you would help us to continue to serve you and be closer to you. We pray in your precious name, Amen!
