Choosing the Tree of Life
One morning, after the corporate morning revival at the brothers' and sisters' house, Brother Wu came to see us, and he began to ask each brother and sister about to graduate whether they had all turned in their registration forms to attend the full-time training. He asked one by one, and among them he called my name.
At that time I had been saved only half a year and did not know what the full-time training was. Moreover, I was staying at the meeting hall only to prepare for an exam and continue my schooling. But at that very moment, my heart began to be disturbed by the Lord—should I go to the training?
When the sister serving me learned of my struggle, she decided to take me to fellowship with Brother Wu. My impression to this day is still very deep: Brother Wu spoke no great doctrine at the time, nor even introduced what the full-time training was; he only told me that in the Garden of Eden there were two trees: one was the tree of life, and the other was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The day one eats of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, one shall surely die. The words Brother Wu spoke to me shone within my spirit and let me know how to choose.
Looking back now, Brother Wu really had faith, to let a little sister saved only half a year go to attend the training. What followed was the township-and-village propagation and the service in Russia. After returning to Taiwan, without my asking him, Brother Wu immediately arranged my subsequent service. In his eyes I was a daughter of Hall One, and he truly was my spiritual father.
