A Chinese Christian brother from the northwest province of Xinjiang was released after serving twenty years in prison. He shared this poem written by his wife just before her death in prison...
As a real disciple I have dedicated my life
hoeing the fields energetically,
Begging for food shamelessly,
Wearing worn-out clothes
as if they were formal dresses
Freezing to death at the windy station
yet uttering not a word of complaint.
Only if the Gospel would be widely spread
Am I willing to be hung upside down
on the cross…with no regret.
