Stories Written by the Hand of God | 写在神手中的故事

My experience in Honduras completely overturned my previous understanding. I came to realize that a person's happiness is not determined by what kind of job they have, what kind of house they live in, or how much money they make, but rather by their relationship with God—by how much they set their eyes on heaven, how much hope they have, and how deeply they trust in Him.

I saw the adults and children serving with us there, praying with such focus and reverence. When they talked about God, their eyes lit up. Their dependence on and trust in God were so genuine, and an invisible power struck and moved me deeply. It’s really hard to describe clearly with words or just a few sentences.

My time in Honduras also made me understand that only those who have experienced suffering truly realize how limited their own strength is—and thus rely more fully on God. They come to grasp how precious salvation is. Everyone on earth will experience suffering, but because of God's love, we are no longer alone and can be full of hope.

I shared my testimony as a believer for the very first time in the largest prison in Honduras. To this day, I still can't remember exactly what I said. I just remember that the inmates listening to me would start clapping from time to time. I saw their eyes soften; some were secretly wiping away tears in the corners.

There was an old man clutching a Bible to his chest, repeatedly saying "Amen." I also remember that a pipe burst in the prison that day, and one man held a towel tightly around it to keep the sound of spraying water from disturbing our sharing.

When we were about to leave, those inmates crossed the yellow line that separated us from them to come shake our hands. After that experience, I realized that sharing our testimony is not just about telling our own story—it’s about telling God’s story. And any story that belongs to God is worth sharing and proclaiming.

在洪都拉斯颠覆了我之前的认知，人活得幸福与否真的不在于你做着什么样的工作，住着怎样的房子，赚多少钱，而是更在于你和神的关系如何，你把多少的眼光放在天上，有多少盼望，有多么的信靠神。

我看到当地与我们一起服事的大人和孩子们祷告时专注虔诚的样子，他们谈论到神时候眼睛都在放光，我看到他们对神的仰望和信靠是无比真实的，有一种无形的力量给我带来冲击并感染着我，我真的无法通过文字或三言两语可以描绘清楚。

洪都拉斯的经历也让我明白，经历苦难的人才能知道自己的能力是多么有限从而更加信靠神，才能明白救恩是多么重要，地上的人都是会经历苦难，但是因着神的爱我们不再孤单，并满有盼望。

我人生第一次讲自己信主的见证是在洪都拉斯最大的监狱里，到现在也想不起当时自己都说了些什么。只记得听我讲话的狱友时不时就开始鼓掌，我看到他们的眼神变得柔软，有人在角落里偷偷擦着眼泪，把圣经抱在胸口的老爷爷一遍一遍说阿门，我还记得那天监狱里的水管爆了，有一个人为了不让喷水的声音影响我们的分享，他用毛巾死死的把水管按住。

当我们要走的时候，那些罪犯跨越了分割我们和他们的黄线，过来和我们握手。在这件事之后，让我意识到我们分享见证不只是在讲我们的故事，更是在讲神的故事，只要是神的故事，就是值得分享和传讲的。
