A Testimonial (written together with Jiaxin)

以前的我,看天父的好为理所当然。
Reflections, of how I had taken God's goodness for granted,

现在的我,知道我不配拥有天父的爱。
Realizing, I did not deserve His Love and Grace,

以前的我,以为我已很懂得天父。
Recollecting, a belief that I knew Him well, my pride demanded,

现在的我,想要知道天父的跟多。
Renewing, my hopes of knowing, once again His embrace,

以前的我,不用加以思考就回答“因为主,所以我… …”。
Remorseful, in my many thoughtless prayers unanswered,

现在的我,想要以我的真心为主做… … 。
Reclaiming, my heart to serve Him in this time and place, 

以前的我,只是心灵上的感动。
Recounting, my joy in Him that never lasted,

现在的我,是万分的感恩。
Reaffirmed, my gratefulness in the lessons I had faced,

以前的我,会隐瞒。
Reliving, how I had hidden the very person I became and doubted,

现在的我,会惭愧和努力地悔改。
Rekindled, my soul, my shame, my heart to repent in Grace,

以前的我,人在心不在。
Reminded, of the person I was, half-hearted,

现在的我,将会变成人在心也在。
Reconnecting, my desire to commit to Christ in glory and praise,

我不想再变回以前的我。
Through it all, to never return to the person I had created,

不想是短暂,而是长久。 
Moving ever forward, to the day I will meet my Lord face to face.
