Feng Ming in Phoenix City: The grief of losing a loved one. Feng'er's eldest brother Dong'er is 18 years older than her. He has a pair of children. The eldest daughter is only 4 years younger than her sister-in-law Feng'er and is named Zhen'er. The younger son is three years younger than her sister and is named Cheng'er. Feng'er likes these nieces and nephews very much and often plays games with them. When Cheng'er was more than one year old, the two siblings returned to their parents' rural hometown with their mother and stayed for some time. On the morning of their return to Jinan, a terrible and tragic thing happened. At that time, the country had just been established, and everything was in a period of waste, especially in the rural areas, which were extremely poor. They rarely had white-flour steamed buns to eat. That morning, before dawn, Chenger's aunt went to press the wheat on the mill, beat it into white flour, and steamed it into white-flour steamed buns. The three of them, mother and daughter, had breakfast and returned to the city. The uncle's children got up early and ate some other food, while Cheng'er got up late and ate a steamed bun on an empty stomach. After a while, he suffered from vomiting and diarrhea and passed out. At this time, other children also had adverse reactions. The adults rushed to the doctor for diagnosis and treatment. The other children were saved, but Feng'er's cute little nephew Cheng'er died without resuscitation because he was young and ate on an empty stomach. When Feng'er learned the news, it was after the adults had finished handling the matter, and during their conversations, they learned the story and origin of some things. Cheng'er's grandfather and grandmother's family have three sons and two daughters. Cheng'er's mother is the eldest daughter, and the younger daughter is also married to a tailor shop in Jinan City. The three sons are engaged in different professions in Jinan City, so although the family is in the countryside, they are relatively wealthy, and their behavior is somewhat assertive and domineering. In the village He offended many people, and many families were resentful towards his family, so they had murderous intentions, and secretly added poison to the grinding mill that their family often used. He wanted to take revenge on his parents who had three sons and two daughters, but none of the people he wanted to poison died. Instead, Cheng'er became the victim for no reason and became the scapegoat. Cheng'er's father worked for the Jinan Railway Bureau. For this matter, the Railway Bureau sent people to the countryside several times to investigate. Because the legal system was not established at the time, the investigation ended with no solid evidence and no results, and the matter was never settled. Cheng'er was unfortunately killed and passed away, which was a great blow to the relatives of Cheng'er's family. For a long time, Cheng'er's family was enveloped in sorrow and pain, especially Cheng'er's parents, who were in agony. Feng'er was still young at that time. She only wiped her tears secretly in the dead of night. Feng'er was only 7 or 8 years old at that time. She didn't understand why? A lively nephew went to his grandma's house in the countryside. How could he suddenly die and disappear without a trace? This was Feng'er's first time experiencing the loss of a loved one, which left a deep imprint in her young heart that could not be erased, making her realize that people are mortal and no one can predict the future. Feng'er grew up and later got to know the Lord Jesus Christ, and understood where people come from and where they end up. After God created the heaven and earth, all things in the universe, and man, it was human ancestors Adam and Eve who first rebelled against God, became sinners, and were kicked out of the Garden of Eden by God. However, “God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 1:16). John 5:24 also tells us: "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned, but has passed from death to life." This allows people to understand a truth: people are born with a sinful nature. It is the precious blood of Jesus Christ that covers and cleanses people's sins. Those who listen to him have the hope of eternal life. From then on, people no longer feared death, but the beginning of a new life. The Bible teaches in Acts 1:8: "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Therefore, God's incomparable love, mercy, and protection inspire Christians to shoulder God's mission and preach the incomparable good gospel to the world.
