Editor's Note: The passage is the vision of a sister who used to be a prostitute. Now she has become a Christian, daughter of God. She is willing to spread the gospel of God even though she still cares about comments from other people. Her testimony and story are as follows:
(Continued: I)
Then I started my working life in Weinan City. I made a boyfriend there and followed him to Xi'an City. He seemed to be a man I could marry with. However, he had a relationship with another woman when he was on a business trip. We broke up and I was abandoned.
I bathed my cheeks for a whole week and wondered why our love stopped.
However, I knew that my life should continue so I attended a computer class and found a job. I changed my opinions of love. I thought no one would love a person forever.
Then I happened to enter a song and dance troupe after a successful interview. I didn't have any basic skills of dancing, but I grasped the techniques of modern dancing easily. I chose to stay in the group because the new friends there made me happy.
At that time, I wouldn't know that the following life was full of all kinds of changes.
Lose the direction and drift through life
In January 2007, I went from Xi'an city to Xia men City in Fujian Province with the song and dance troupe. We performed in a nightclub. It was the first time I had ever been to such a place.
At the beginning, we just gave a dancing performance, gradually some dancers became barmaids and prostitutes. After two months, the nightclub closed down due to its illegal business. Some dancers chose to go back to Xi'an. I had no direction of my life at that time. I chose to stay in Xiamen and work as barmaids with another two dancers.
My empty heart was full of desire and vanity. At first, I thought that chatting and drinking with guests was not a big deal. I was not well educated, but I could get money easily and quickly as a barmaid. I stayed in several nightclubs in Xiamen. My life was decadent.
At that time I didn't care about the comments from other people because I thought everyone has the right to choose their own way.
A guest who used to drink with me always invited me to play with him and his friends. They all drove a BMW.
His friends would also bring a beautiful girl. I knew that these girls and I were the same kind of people. He would give me a sum of money after the party with his friends and invited me to the hotel. I knew what that meant, but I refused him. At that time I still cherished my dignity. Nevertheless, he still asked me to keep the money.
The Bible says that you cannot covert what belongs to other people. However, I desired for all that didn't belong to me.
I met a beautiful girl from Yunnan who was also a barmaid in the nightclub. Later I was told that she was killed by her guest's friend.
Become slaves of money
I rested for a short time and stopped working in the nightclub. I spent all the money I had earned and contacted a previous friend who used to work as barmaids with me together. She introduced me to a large nightclub in Guangdong. I worked more than a barmaid there and started my business of prostitution. I lost my dignity for money.
I have seen the true face of all men in the nightclub. Some took drugs. Some even visited prostitutes with his grandfather and father. Some disgraced and humiliated us.
I was determined to keep single and never marry. I didn't understand the meaning and purpose of my life. I fill my empty with money and vanity.
No one told me that I was a sinner and close to hell at that time. I didn't know God can save me and I was created by him.
To be continued.
