Sister A is a church teacher. In her early 50s, she looks much younger than she actually is. Despite her charming beauty, she has never been in a relationship or marriage. Ever since she graduated from a seminary seven years ago, she has been serving full-time in the church.
A was born into a family of nine, and her father had changed careers from athletics to government work. Taking after her father, she was the local sprinting champion, already very attractive at a young age. She also excelled in her studies and served as a class monitor. At that time, she was widely admired. But everything changed when she was 13 years old. That year, she had an illness, growing a small handful of white hair overnight, after which it gradually spread. The hospital diagnosed her with vitiligo. After such an encounter at a young age, she began to feel inferior and became introverted. She chose to encapsulate herself as if she could enter another safe world.
She did not go into specifics about how she got through that stage, but only said, "God opposes the proud, but in all things God works for the good of those who love him.” Unfortunately, it was 20 years later when she understood this statement.
The government usually assigns jobs to college graduates, but due to her condition, she was replaced. She didn't pursue the matter any further because she was used to the injustice of the world.
During that time, she came into contact with Christianity together with her parents. The first prayer she made was to ask God to make her face and hands white in 10 years so that she would look like a fair-skinned person to others. God had mercy on her, and just over two years, not only her face and hands, but almost her whole body became white, so much so that the doctors were amazed. This was the first miracle she experienced.
At that time, the local church deacon asked her to consider full-time service to God, the church brethren were also moved to urge her, but she declined.
When her father died more than ten years later, she blamed herself for not fulfilling her filial duties and was in a period of discouragement at work. Satan took this opportunity to attack her inwardly with depression. She was no longer strong and stubborn, hence she fell down before God in prayer, and God answered her. At that time, the church sponsored the tuition required to send a believer to the seminary to serve the church in the future. After the congregation prayed, it was still her, and this time she was obedient and her life began anew.
She was very beautiful and must have been pursued by some men when she was young, but she remains single. She said that beauty was originally a blessing from God, but it just became the source of her pride when she was a teenager, and the source of her inferiority complex when she was middle-aged.
"It is a common thing for people to turn the blessings of God into their own snares when they do not know God. Skipping marriage is not a big deal, not everyone is required to marry. In my case, I consider it as God's will," she added.

A姊妹是在教会做讲师的,今年50出头,看起来比实际年轻很多。她很漂亮,却没谈过恋爱也没结婚,自7年前从神学院毕业,就一直在教会全职服侍。
A姊妹出生在一个九口之家,父亲从运动员转业到政府工作。她遗传了父亲基因,是当地的短跑冠军,小小年纪已是楚楚动人,学习又好,还身兼班长,一时风光无限。然而一切在她13岁那年都变了,那年她生了一场病,一夜间长了一小撮白发,之后便逐渐扩散,医院诊断是白癜风。有一天,她的脸上出现了一小块白斑。花一样的年纪有这样的遭遇,她开始变得自卑,变得内向,她要把自己封装起来,仿佛如此就可以进入了另一个安全的世界。
她没有具体的再述说那个阶段是怎么熬过来的,她只说:神抵挡骄傲的人。但万事都是互相效力,叫爱神的人得益处。遗憾的是等她明白这句话的时候,已经是20年后了。
时间来到了大专毕业。毕业后正常是政府分配工作的,但由于病情,她的名额被替代了。她没有再去追究,她已经习惯了这个世界的不公。
那段时间,她同父母一起接触了基督教,第一个做的祷告就是向神求10年内可以把脸和手都变白了,这样在别人看来,自己就像白皮肤的人一样。上帝怜悯她,仅过两年多,不只脸和手,全身几乎都变白了,以至于医生都感到惊奇,这是她经历的第一个神迹。
这时候当地教会的执事建议她,希望可以考虑全职服侍神,教会的众弟兄姐妹也受感动如此说,只是她不愿意。
在那事的十多年后,父亲去世了,她因未尽到孝道就非常自责,工作也处在灰暗期,撒旦借此破口便在内心攻击她,以至她抑郁了。她不再刚强顽硬了,伏在神的面前祷告,神就回应她。教会赞助学费派遣一个信徒去上神学院,将来服侍教会。众人祷告后依旧是她,这次她顺服了,生命也重新开始了。
很漂亮的她,年轻一定不乏追求者,却没有结婚,她说,漂亮本是神的祝福,只是少年时成了她骄傲的资本,中年时成了自卑的源头。把神祝福的事变成了自己的网罗,是人在不认识神时常有的事。至于不结婚,这倒没什么,也不是人人都要如此行,只是在她身上神的旨意是这样的。
