(Minghui.org) My parents spoiled me as a child, and I developed some bad habits, among which were selfishness and willfulness. After I grew up, my aunt introduced me to a young man who later became my boyfriend. However, he was sentenced to seven years in prison for stealing right after we got engaged. Faced with this harsh reality, instead of giving up, I decided to wait for him. It wasn’t easy. I cried for him and for myself, and suffered in pain during those years.
He was released two years early because of his good behavior in prison. We got married shortly after.
I thought that his family would be grateful for my standing by their son and treat me nicely, but it was just the opposite. In their eyes, I was good for nothing, and they bullied me. We fought every day. I knew that I was not always right, but the way they treated me made me very sad. I thought I was wronged, and resented his family.
I was disheartened and lost confidence in life. I thought of committing suicide to relieve the pain, and make their family regret their behavior. But, when I thought of my son and my mother, I knew I was being selfish.
Due to long-term anger and depression, my health deteriorated. I suffered from several ailments, such as cervical spondylosis, breast pain, constipation, dizziness, and lumbar disc herniation. My back hurt terribly when I was at work. I couldn’t squat down, so I just knelt on the ground to do my work. The pain was unbearable.
When I was in distress and pain, a practitioner introduced me to Falun Dafa. I’d heard people talk about it before, but due to the propaganda, the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) ideology of atheism and the staged Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident, I had some negative views about the practice. But this practitioner offered me the precious book Zhuan Falun and taught me the beneficial exercises. She was so enthusiastic that I started practicing Falun Dafa.
After reading Zhuan Falun, I understood the purpose of life, and why people suffer so much. I understood that everything is related to karma, and each suffering has a reason behind it. The principles of Dafa opened my mind, and I no longer held grudges against my parents-in-law. I tried to let go of the bad things that happened in the past, but sometimes they still popped up. I realized that cultivation was not easy, that one must cultivate solidly and conduct themselves according to the principles of Dafa. It could not be easy for a person full of karma and dirty thoughts to cultivate into a great god, and knew that I had to go through many hardships.
My mother-in-law needed surgery and asked me to take care of her. I was reluctant at first, as the resentment I thought I had removed came back again. I immediately thought to myself: I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. Master teaches us to think about others, be kind, and be a good person to everyone. She is my mother-in-law, and I should treat her well.
I was also the only one available to help. I thought this was an opportunity for me to validate the Fa. I accompanied her to the hospital, and took good care of her daily needs. Whenever we got time, I would tell her about the greatness of Dafa and read truth clarification materials to her. She was illiterate, but she could recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I told her that as long as she believed in Dafa, Master would take care of her. The surgery was a success. Now she recites “Falun Dafa is good” sincerely whenever she has time. Sometimes she recites it nearly 200 times in one go. She also told my father-in-law to recite it.
My father-in-law is in his 80s, and now both of my in-laws are in good health. I know that all these are from Master’s protection, for which I’m grateful.
Master saved my husband’s life on December 28, 2018. My husband received a call from his company, telling him to go there and collect his salary. He went on his bicycle, and it took a long time before he returned in the late afternoon. He told me that he hit the railing on the roadside because a car drove by very fast and was making a turn. He tried to avoid the car, and his bicycle smashed into the railing. The bike’s handlebar pressed hard against his belly. He managed to get home in pain while reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” all the way home.
He was vomiting and urinating blood. He called his uncle, the village doctor, who told him to go to the hospital as soon as possible. On the way there, he vomited and defecated, and his hands and feet became cold. The doctor in the emergency unit found that his kidney and spleen had been ruptured, and he needed immediate surgery. The doctor said that one of his kidneys might have to be removed.
I remained calm and was not afraid because I knew Master would take care of him since my husband believed in Dafa and supported my cultivation. My son worked in a hotel. I didn’t call him immediately because I knew he was busy. Besides, I thought he couldn’t help much, and only Master could help my husband.
I told my husband to sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good” at all times. The surgery went very well, but the doctor said that he wasn’t out of danger yet, and the next two days were crucial. My husband kept reciting “Falun Dafa is good.”
The doctor thought that his improvement was incredible. He said that he had never had such a case in the past. I knew that compassionate Master had endured the suffering for my husband.
After he was discharged from the hospital, he listened to Master’s lectures every day, and read truth-clarification materials at home. He told me that after he got well, he would burn incense and kowtow to Master.
Within four months, my husband had fully recovered and was able to work again. His family and friends witnessed the miracle of Dafa from this experience. Many other miraculous things have happened to my family. I was so fortunate to have started practicing Falun Dafa in 2012. Compassionate Master is always watching over and encouraging me. My gratitude to Master is beyond words.
