A precious lesson is inspired by a persecuted Christian brother in China:

Physically beaten up in persecution for the name of Jesus Christ,

Is as real and painful as emotional/mentally worn out in depression,

I cry out “why am I still alive?”

Even though I seem to have pitiful right to complain to God, the situations won’t improve a bit.

Therefore, like Job, I finally learn:

Without God’s reviving Spirit to sustain me,

I am only a dead meat in a prison of darkness.

The epiphany, dawning on me through suffering with my own sins, or from evil attacks, or even for God’s divine will is:

O, if I can be alive and used by God to witness His glorious power—Nothing is impossible with El Shaddai, the Almighty God,

Then that’s totally my underserved honor.
