除了恩典，我還能說什麼呢？
離開商業電台，想將自己奉獻與主的時候，林本立牧師、師母也正好開始成立中國福音事工部。
在一個團契的聚會中，一位長老建議我和林牧師、師母聯繫。就這樣，神的恩典大過我們屬靈的不成熟，使一個年輕氣盛、又心中暗喜雀屏中選的人，開始了服事之路。當然，也開始經歷神看重屬靈生命勝過工作的靈命塑造的功課。
直到2008年，洛杉磯電台與我們本地廣播的節目合約即將到期，神讓我放下「遠東」的服事。其實心中還百思不解，一向都是呼召人出來服事的，祂怎麼會呼召我回家呢？當時的執行主任李子群牧師對我說：「如果是神的旨意，我們都要順服。」於是，本地電台合約到期後，我回家了！
在家一待就是七年多。2016年，「需要同工」四個字總是從「遠東」的刊物、信件中跳入眼簾。我有些敏感地問：「主，你在呼召我嗎？」安靜等候神的時間。四月份，聖靈催逼聯繫「遠東」同工了解實際情形。是的，真的需要同工。蒙神的恩典，我，重返「遠東」。
壓傷的蘆葦祂不折斷，將殘的燈火祂不熄滅。服事之路是一條終生珍惜的恩典之路。
Other than Grace, what else can I say?
When I left the commercial radio station and wanted to dedicate myself to the Lord, Rev. and Mrs. John B. Lin just started Chinese Ministries at FEBC.
At a fellowship meeting, a Church Elder suggested I contact Rev. & Mrs. Lin. Just like that, the Grace that is greater than us fell upon me. I was happy, a young and spiritually naive person, thinking I must be the chosen one, and stepped onto the path of serving the Lord full of joy. In reality, I began to experience God, who values the growth of my spiritual life more than my work as a servant, and He molded me gracefully.
In 2008, FEBC’s contract with a Los Angeles local radio station was about to expire, and God seemed to prod me to give up my work at FEBC. I could not understand this, because God calls people to serve Him. Why would He call me to give up and go home? The Executive Director at that time, Rev. Lo, said: “If this is God’s will, we need to be in submission.” When the contract with the local station expired, I went home.
I remained at home for 7 years. In 2016, I saw this notice: “Co-Workers Wanted” on the news letters from FEBC. I became very sensitive, and asked Him: “Lord, are you calling me back?” Yet I waited for His time. In April, I was urged deeply by the Holy Spirit to contact a FEBC coworker to find out the details. Oh yes, they truly need co-workers. Because of His marvelous Grace, I was able to return to FEBC again.
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench. The road of serving the Lord is a precious road for a whole life and a Path Full of Grace.
