Years ago
the communist government in China
commissioned an author to write a biography of Hudson Taylor with the purpose
of distorting the facts and presenting him in a bad light. They wanted to
discredit the name of this consecrated missionary of the gospel. As the
author was doing his research, he was increasingly impressed by Taylor's saintly
character and godly life, and he found it extremely difficult to carry out
his assigned task with a clear conscience. Eventually, at the risk of losing
his life, he laid aside his pen, renounced his atheism, and received Jesus as
his personal Savior. Whether we realize it or not, our example leaves an
impression on others. Let's ask God to help us make it one of love, faith,
and purity of life.
