The Communist authorities in a Chinese prison commanded the prisoners to shout back, "Prison is good!" But, Sister Ling would reply, "Jesus is good!" She was made to do many push-ups. Despite this, she continued her reply over and over again, day after day, even when the number of push-ups was increased. She explained, "I rejoiced that I could witness in front of the prisoners and the officials." Do you think that she understood the words of Paul, "Rejoice in the Lord always"? Humor is a form of gentleness that flows out of a confident joy.
