From being self-abased to cheerful,
How Lord Jesus has changed me
~ Sussan ~

Hi, everybody, I am Cheung Suet Ching. My English name is Sussan.

 

I was born in a poor family with all seven members living in a small wooden house, sleeping on one plank bed. As my parents favoured my elder brother and younger sister over me, I often cried in my bed, feeling that nobody loved or cared for me. I always queried: why was I born in such a family? Ever since my childhood, I was an introvert. I felt interior to others and was not happy at all. When I was studying in the kindergarten, I cheated, fearing that I might fail in English dictation. Moreover, I fought with my siblings.

 

One year, at Christmas, my elder sister took me to a gospel meeting and then I became a believer in Christ. After that, my life changed. Because of Jesus’ love and the care of the group of brothers and sisters around me, I was very much cheered up and became happier and merrier. I never cheated in my test again and my academic performance improved a lot. I got into a band one college and finally became a nurse. Besides, I no longer got angry with my family but on the contrary, I loved them more and more. I knew how to express my love, especially to my parents. I accompanied them to clinics, tea houses and picnics. Despite my timidness, I could tell them naturally that I loved them. In their eyes, I had become a good and filial daughter.

 

In March 2020, father got stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He lost 40 lbs of weight. It was indeed a bolt from the blue. I immediately prayed for him. I loved him! I wanted to give him the most precious present in the world—God’s salvation. I thanked God greatly that ever since his disease was discovered, for half a year he was taken care by the family members and never stayed in the hospital. During Covid 19, brothers and sisters came visiting him from different districts and preached the Gospel to him at home. Some of them even came from as far as Yuen Long, Tuen Mun, Ngau Tau Kok and Cheung Kwan O.

 

Thanks to God! My father was converted on 5th September, 2020. We could witness personally the scene when father believed in Jesus. He was so peaceful, happy and blissful. At that moment, we could not feel his pain or agony. I was grateful to the Lord Jesus for His love for my father in His unrivalled patience in seeking and saving him. God had been waiting for him for 80 years. 

 

On the 15th September 2020, father rested in the arms of the Lord Jesus. My relatives were few, not more than ten. But many brothers and sisters attended his funeral service. The number amounted above 100.

 

I am thankful that I have become a Christian in Christ. My life has been changed ever since. Though adversities and tears come occasionally, it is still full of blessings and happiness.
