A Chinese photographer was riding one day through the snow
covered countryside of interior China. His soul was troubled.
He had been witnessing a great movement toward Christianity
among his friends since the Japanese invasion. He longed to
know the truth of what he had been hearing from Christian
missionaries. As he rode along, he said, "Lord, if I could only
see Thy face, I would believe." Instantly a voice spoke to his
heart, "Take a picture! Take a picture!" He looked out at the
melting snow, forming pools of water and revealing here and
there the black earth. It was an unattractive scene. Nevertheless,
being thus strangely compelled, the man descended and focused
his camera on the snowy roadside. Curious to know the out-
come of the incident, he developed the film at once on return-
ing to his home. Out from among the black and white areas of
the snow scene a Face looked at him, full of tenderness and
love-the face of Christ. He became a Christian as the result.
And because the Chinese people think that God has in this
wonderful way revealed Himself to them in the hour of their
trial, many have since found the Savior through the picture, as
the story of it is told in various parts of China.
