My Nephew

Nov. 19, 2015 |   By a Dafa practitioner in China

(Minghui.org) My nephew was a troubled youth by the time he was in his first year of middle school. He had stolen things, including from his own family. He fooled around and spent most of his time playing in Internet cafes and going to parties. He was sent to a youth correctional center and even briefly practiced a religion. But he was seen as a hopeless case.

My sister-in-law was extremely worried and angry, and developed heart problems. She asked us to look after her son. My nephew moved in with us when he was 28. Six months later he was reborn – a new person.

Feeling Peaceful at My Home

Once my nephew moved in, my husband watched him closely. I asked Master for help, saying, “Master, please save this life. It must be predestined that he has come into our house.”

A few days later, my nephew told me that he felt very peaceful and comfortable at my home. I told him, “You will have this kind of feeling when you stay with a real Falun Gong practitioner. Bad thoughts will not come upon you. This is the power of Dafa.” I clarified the facts about Falun Gong to him and he renounced his membership in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

To help him understand Falun Gong better, I asked my nephew to help me do some Dafa work, including downloading Freegate, a software widely used in China to view websites blocked by the CCP. I also told him about Dafa-related events and stories of practitioners.

To help my nephew turn his life around, I advised him to recite “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I explained, “People living in this universe must strictly follow the characteristic of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to conduct themselves. When you conduct yourself by the principles of Dafa, you will have a different view of the spiritual realm and your morality will be uplifted.” My nephew nodded and said, “I will behave well and at least become a normal person. Please remind me if I go astray.”

Dafa Changed My Nephew

We helped my nephew find a job at an Internet cafe. One month later, we were told by the owner of the cafe that my nephew had done well there and would get a raise.

My nephew often picked up discarded Dafa fliers. He then distributed the fliers again after I cleaned them up. He told me that many Falun Gong practitioners used the computers at his workplace. Not only did he forgo checking their identification, he also assigned them to safe stations to prevent them from being monitored by government agents. We were very happy that my nephew had developed such kind thoughts.

He told us that he always recited “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” when a bad thought came up. He was happy that he no longer felt fearful. He deeply appreciated Master for his rebirth. Indeed, my nephew has changed.

Benefiting from Dafa

To improve his opportunities to make a better living, we tried to help my nephew learn some skills at a driving school. But he only had a few hours to study for a very difficult and lengthy test.

Time was really short and my nephew thought it might be better to take the test at a later time. I encouraged him: “You have conducted yourself according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. You will be blessed.” My nephew put his hands together in front of his chest in a gesture of respect and asked Master for his blessing.

Amazingly, he received high scores on his test. He was so happy that he cried. He knelt down and bowed to Master's photo. I was very happy to witness the extraordinary power of Dafa and Master's infinite grace again.

During his six-month stay with us, my nephew has improved day by day. Now, he drives a taxi to make living and has a balanced and stable lifestyle.

My sister-in-law thanks me every time we meet. I always tell her to thank Master because it was Master who saved her son.
