大家好，我是趙越。很高兴能和大家一起分享我信主的歷程。
我其實更想講講我姥姥是怎麼信主的，因為這也是我信主之路的開端（我是北方人，叫外祖母是姥姥，就是外婆，阿婆）。
我的小表姐和我都是姥姥帶大的，她從小身體不很結實，總生病總是胃疼，我姥姥就請鄰居的一位張奶奶來給她推拿按摩，這個鄰居奶奶是信主的。我姐說每次張奶奶來揉肚子，總會把手先捂熱了再給她按。小朋友受到這麼溫柔鄭重的對待感觸是很深的，雖然表達不出來，但每次提起就總是說這個奶奶「不一樣」。後來我姥姥就是在張奶奶的感召下也信主了。也是這位張奶奶常常來給我姥姥講經講基督的故事，因為我姥姥不識字。这些也在影响我，我一直知道上帝和基督是存在的。後來種種原因，我姥姥過世後家裡的親人們都沒有再信主。再後來，我有了自己的小家庭，又搬到了異國他鄉。在這個過程中充滿了困難和壓力，可是每次我們遇到困難感到痛苦的時候，都有信主的姐妹在幫我們，一次兩次很多次，這讓我相信我人生轉折的每一步主都有恩典。到今天，我的人生仍舊有大困惑和大痛苦，我祈望主給我增智慧增力量，讓我可以像寧靜禱文里講的那樣有寧靜，去接受我無法改變的事；有勇氣，去改變我能改變的事；有智慧，可以分辨二者的不同。在这世间并非没有灾祸和苦难，但主在灾祸和苦难中有救恩，因为爱主，祂必搭救；因为认信主名，祂必抬举；因为专心求告，祂必赐福。愿主成我一生之主，讓祂帶領我走以後的路，無論高山低谷，都會堅定信靠祂.

Hello everyone, My name is Zhao Yue. I am delighted to share with you my journey of believing in the Lord.
In fact, I want to speak about how my grandmother came to believe in the Lord, as this is also the beginning of my faith journey (I came from the north, and the grandmother 姥姥 I mentioned is from my mother's side.)
My cousin and I were both brought up by my grandmother. Growing up, my cousin wasn't very strong. She always felt sick and had stomach pains. My grandma asked an elderly neighbor, Grandma Zhang, to massage my cousin. This elderly neighbor is a believer. My cousin told me whenever Grandma Zhang rubbed her stomach, she always warmed her hands before massaging. Such tenderness and solemnity manners touch a child’s heart deeply in an indescribable way. Every time we converse about Grandma Zhang, we always feel she is "special." Grandma Zhang also led my grandma to Christ. Since my grandmother was illiterate, she often came and read her the Bible and the story of Jesus. I too am affected by these; I have known there is a God and that Christ exists since I was a child. After my grandmother passed away, none of my family members believed in the Lord again for various reasons. Later I moved abroad after having my own small family. We faced many difficulties and pressures during this process, but there were sisters who believed in the Lord to help us every time we encountered difficulties, once, twice, countless times. I believe every step I took at the turning point in my life was a result of God's grace. Even today, my life remains full of confusion and pain. I pray that the Lord will give me wisdom and strength, so that I can have the tranquility as stated in the Serenity Prayer, to accept the things that I cannot change; have the courage to change what I can change; and have wisdom to distinguish between the two.
Though the world is not devoid of disasters and sufferings, the Lord has salvation in disasters and sufferings. Because those who love the Lord will be rescued; those who confess His name will be exalted; those who devote themselves to prayer will be blessed.
May the Lord be the Lord of my life. No matter what highs or lows arise, I firmly trust Him for the journey ahead.
