Samuel Isaac Joseph Schereschewsky, a Lithuanian Jew, was preparing to be a rabbi at Breslau University. While studying the Old and New Testaments, he became convinced that Yeshua, Jesus, was the Messiah. He set out for China to serve the Lord laboring for twenty years translating the New Testament into Mandarin. Stricken by sunstroke, he became paralyzed except for one finger. With the help of his devoted wife, he translated the entire Bible into classical Chinese typing it with one finger. It took him seven years, and almost superhuman strength; but he translated the entire Bible into classical Chinese. The children of Abraham came into this world to bless the nations. Schereschewsky, after finding his Messiah, did just that. It took lots of work, everything he had, but the Chinese people received the word of God in their language. If you're born again, you too are a child of Abraham and called to be a blessing. Being a blessing takes work, perseverance and painstaking commitment. But it's worth it. If a Jewish man from Lithuania could give the Gospel to China, then you too must persevere in your calling, and you too will be a blessing to the world.
