FSN Fanwai has recently been addicted to special effects dramas of the Kamen Rider series
It is an abandoned church that is said to have been demolished by the government, and the reconstruction plan is under bidding.
Twenty-nine-year-old Li Wenwen stood at the door of the church, looking at the abandoned church, his eyes were full of calm, if he didn't say it, it is estimated that no one would believe that Li Wenwen had lived here for three years.
Strange to say, at the age of twenty-five, Li Wenwen gave up his position as department manager to become a priest in this church.
According to Li Wenwen himself, although he did not have all the conditions (to be a priest requires a lot of conditions), but under the recommendation of the previous priest of this church, he temporarily acted as a priest, and gradually became a real priest again—presumably with the help of the previous priest, and it was just a small church.
The reason why Lee became a Christian is also puzzling—he never told anyone else that he had studied Christian texts like the Bible in high school and college.
"And in this way, the prince and princess lived happily ever after." Twenty-eight-year-old Li Wenwen finished telling the fairy tale in his hand, closed the book, and stuffed the quilt corners for the two little girls beside him, "Okay, the story is over, go to sleep." ”
"Good night, Mr. Priest."
"Good night, Mr. Priest."
After saying goodnight, the two little girls obediently closed their eyes and went to sleep.
"Good night." Li Wenwen smiled and got up and left the small room.
The two little girls are a pair of sisters, the older is ten years old and the younger is nine years old, both abandoned orphans.
A year ago, a private welfare home closed down – or gave up on continuing its business – and the director found a way out for the children in the orphanage, and sent them away one after another, leaving only these two - both with congenital heart disease, no one wanted to accept them, and the other institutions also said they could no longer accept them.
The dean approached Li Wenwen and hoped that the church could take in the two children.
"Father, you are such a gentle man." Mary, the only nun in the church, said with a smile.
"Really?" Li Wenwen straightened out the black robe draped over his body, "But I never thought of myself as a gentle person. ”
After saying that, Li Wenwen left directly regardless of Mary's surprised gaze.
In the morning, Li Wenwen opened the door of the church to let in the sunlight and waited for the believers who came to pray—though sometimes there was none.
"Mr. Priest, did you say someone would come today?" The slightly older girl asked Li Wenwen.
"Someone will come."
"Will someone adopt us today?" The younger girl asked.
"There will be one, have you eaten breakfast? Little ones. ”
"I'm done eating, Mr. Priest."
"Okay, shall we continue to study math, or shall we study something else?" Li Wenwen smiled and touched the heads of the two little girls, "Okay, let's go back, I will ask if I want to adopt you when someone comes to pray." ”
At dinner, Lee, Mary, and the twin sisters prayed silently: "Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for your praise and new day, new grace, thank you for your nurturing and blessing, come to the table and receive the food you have given me, please bless and cleanse me, sanctify me, let me eat the good, let me have a thankful heart, pray, in the holy name of the Lord, Amen." ”
"Alright. Let's eat. Li Wenwen watched the two sisters start to be happy, eating cheap food in small bites, and smiled, and Mary also smiled and let the two sisters eat first.
"Mr. Priest, am I going to see my sister?" Lying on the bed, the little girl gasped and asked, "What is heaven like, Mr. Priest?" ”
A month ago, the eldest girl died after a heart attack, which drained the savings of the church, and Mary had to return to China because of the incident at home.
And now, the little girl's illness is also starting to flare up.
"O heaven, whose beauty surpasses all things in the world, which cannot be described by the material things of the world, is the most stable and unshakeable kingdom, where there is no sorrow, no pain, no tears, and no death, and a place full of glory, praise, and joy."
After speaking, Li Wenwen looked at the little girl who closed her eyes and began to recite the eulogy for the last time in her life:
May God forgive you as you forgive others,
Man comes from dust, and returns to dust,
May your soul rest in Heaven, Amen. ”
Li Wenwen was afraid, not because of death, but because of the despicable calm that emerged from his heart—why didn't he feel anything?
Yes, the "collapse" of the church, Li Wenwen is like "other people" who have nothing to do with it, there is no feeling, only calm, as calm as a stranger.
Then, Li Wenwen was convicted of excessive defense because he killed two thieves who sneaked into the church, because Li Wenwen's usual behavior was good, and the two thieves had a criminal record, plus Li Wenwen gave sufficient proof that he was unintentionally killed, so he was only criticized and educated, and then released (note to book friends, Article 20, paragraph 3 of the Criminal Law of China stipulates: Take defensive actions against ongoing assault, homicide, robbery, rape, kidnapping, and other violent crimes that seriously endanger personal safety, Causing injury or death to an unlawful offender is not considered excessive defense and does not bear criminal responsibility. When you encounter these things, you don't have to be afraid of it, just forget about it).
Since then, Li Wenwen has learned a human emotion: when to cry, when to laugh, when to be sad, when to be happy - really more and more like a normal person.
"Kids, it's dangerous here, let's go play somewhere else." Li Wenwen smiled and drove away a few children who were dying, and turned to leave here.
