Quan looked at Lin Shan, then stared at the floor. When he looked back up, he said, “I do not tell my God to do anything. He is the one who tells. He is the Master; I am but the servant. Li Quan is not a healer. I have seen healings; I have laid hands on the sick with others in my church. I am not a pastor, except when our pastor is . . . absent. I am not a seminary graduate. I am a lowly locksmith’s assistant. But this much I know—my God, Yesu Jidu, has the power to heal, and should he will it, he can heal without difficulty. I do not know his desire. But I will ask him to heal Lin Bo.”
