This book “From Dark Clouds to Blue Sky”, a collection of testimonies, will especially help those struggling with their marriage, or their family and friend. Such as, divorce, affair, family violence, remarriage, getting back together with your partner, how to be a step mum or dad, and how do divorce impact the emotions and feelings of the next generation, etc. All kinds of difficult situations and solutions are included in the book. The book can help those having trouble in their marriage. I hope that by reading the book we can encourage and support one another, learn and grow, and I hope that the reader carefully critique the discussions and suggestions in the book. Especially towards testimonies of those who have been hurt, let us act on their advice . Like Jesus and his actions towards the woman caught with adultery (John 8:3-11),let Jesus' mercy, love, acceptance, empathy and care, be experienced by all who have done wrong and have been hurt. Especially so that those who have not experienced major difficulties in marriage, to learn from others' experience, and avoid tragedy in their own lives.

 

Praise the Lord! In writing the “From Dark Cloud to Blue Sky” testimony collection, we have used a lot of time to prepare, and 30 days to fast and pray. All bits and pieces have had God's presence and inspiration. Through this book , God wants us in this generation, to awake everyone not to be stuck at past pain. To step out from remaining bits of memories and suffering. To let everyone know that life is redeemed by God at high cost. We have no right to feel worry about ourselves, God has a great hope in all of us, so that we can cross from darkness into light. We have no right to live for ourselves, but to live for God's will in us, to complete God's calling, to be a strong testimony and a blessing to others. Just as Romans 8:28 “And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God,and have been marked out by his purpose." Praise the Lord, we are all those called by God, when we give our lives back to God, we are filled with hope, filled with power, no longer walking in circles, and we can walk on high with God's guidance. Just as Habakkuk 3:17-19 “For though the fig-tree has no flowers, and there is no fruit on the vine, and work on the olive comes to nothing, and the fields give no food ; and the flock is cut off from its resting-place, and there is no herd in the cattle-house: Still, I will be glad in the Lord, my joy will be in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, and he makes my feet like roes' feet, guiding me on my high places." With the help of our Lord, we have hope in what's above. We may still be weak and despised, but with the help of the mighty and powerful testimonies of God in our lives,we can be there for those in need to receive healing, to grow together, to encourage each other, and to live in the promise of God in each of our lives. This is also the ultimate will of God in this generation, to do God's mission.
