When Lee Yih looks back over the first third of his life, he sees a directionless young man with no anchor to base his identity. No father figure. A mixed ethnicity as a Chinese-American. Varied spiritual experiences. Murky job prospects.
Then came the day he found himself in the army in Germany, bored and stoned all the time, and with a marriage that was failing. The seemed to be no hope. Nothing he could see could change his situation. Yet at that lowest moment, someone intervened. Nothing fancy, just an offer of friendship. An act of kindness that would change his life, his wife, and many others he would later encounter.

I accepted Christ as a child. 13 years old, brought to youth church by a friend. I had visited there numerous times. I went to the altar lots of times. Those people laying hands on you and watching other people cry around you, I was scared. But I knew I wanted what they said Jesus had to offer. So the last time I went, I prayed. "God if this is for real, I'm listening. I'm not going to fight it anymore. I'm not going to be afraid. If this is for real, please show me". I fell to my knees before I knew what had happened. I cried and laughed all at the same time. It was pure love. Pure joy. - But I was 13 with no guidance and at age 15 I was date raped. I had no one that brought me to church regularly or shared my faith and after what happened, I lost it. I was angry. And I've sat around in the "in between" for a long time. A hole in my heart. A void I filled with things that did not belong. I'm 33 now. I learned that even though we walk away from God he doesn't leave us. I walked away. Like a stubborn teenager, I rebelled. It wasn't His fault. My path has many curves and detours, but because I meant it THEN, HE always leads me back. TThank you Lee Yih and makers of these videos for sharing your stories.

"God shaped void." That is just so eloquent and you are so right. There is a void in all of us, whom He created, that only he can fill. You know- I was abandoned by my own earthly father, and I would be so happy to have a God filled father like you. I'm so glad you captured your dream!

This speaks to me so much! There is a void that we try to fill with everything else, but God -- relationships, sex, money, drugs, addictions, all the lusts of the world -- but it never satisfies and will always be fleeting pleasures that always leave us still broken and craving for something more because that place in our hearts has always been and will always be meant for our Creator -- our Father! -- who knows us and loves us more than any person ever will. Thanks for the amazing testimony!

I sent this to my friend who is a missionary in Taiwan. She said if only it were in Chinese she could show all the young people at the mission orphanage.

I could relate to you in terms being a certain race and being able to fit in to society and keeping up with the Jones' and so forth...But I learn that it is not what's on the outside. It is on the inside.
