Pastor Lin, Director of Taiwan Rainbow Missions
Thank you, Lord, for using me as a disabled person. Before meeting the Lord, I do not really care about others in my eyes and have no God in my heart. In His world, we need to glorify
His name and praise His love. I am from Taiwan. I lost my sight when I was 12 years old. It's been thirty years I cannot see others. After meeting Jesus, I still cannot see people around me, but now I have God in my heart. First of all, I will bring this song to you which is from Taiwan. We hope that everything we do is to glorify his name and he will protect us. No matter what circumstances we are in, with his name, we will be victorious.
(After the music.) Our source of strength and hope is from our Lord, the creator. When I was 12 years old, I lost my sight. From that time, I lived in a world, which is full of darkness and sadness. I felt hopeless. However, when I was 21 years old, I came to Christ. Because Christ is our light of world, as long as we follow Him, we will not walk in darkness. In Taiwan, no matter if you get a Master degree or PHD, you still need to face a reality to get a job either as a fortune teller or masseur. I did not even know my own fortune. I did not choose to be a fortune teller, but I choose to become a professional masseur. At that time, I also wanted to have money and I thought money was very reliable. I did not know Jesus, and I had money, but I feel despair and something missing. I did not know where to find hope, by God's grace, He came to me and he has a plan for me. I met a famous wheel-chair-bound writer in Taiwan, Liu Xia who introduce Jesus to me and shared God's love with me. By God's grace, at age of 21, I came to Christ. I resigned my post and started to encourage people with God's love as my career. From the time I knew Jesus, my life has changed drastically. I have traveled to nearly 40 countries and share my story and the gospel with others. Most importantly, Jesus is our light of life!
Next let's enjoy a song, "Do you know¡K" Without invasion of windstorms, the beauty of rainbow would not show. If there were no rocks to block the streams, there would not be waves that dance. Please enjoy this song.
At the end of last year, I left the foundation where I used to work. When I heard about the witnessing of Peter Wong, founder of Rainbow Missions, I am very touched. He can enjoy his life in America, but he chose to serve disabled youth in China and share God's love with those who are in need. God spoke to me, will you work as masseur the rest of your lifetime? I told God, please open a door for me, I am willing to serve in China, sharing gospel with them. There are 1 million people of people with disabilities in Taiwan of which 60,000 are visually impaired. In China there are 85 million people with disabilities of which 16 million are visually impaired. I said to the Lord,
"Let your light shine in the darkness of others, amazing God. Let the blind walk in the light. Let's
enjoy the next song. Amazing Lord!" |
