Last year, I had the privilege of attending a conference entitled “For the Happiness of My Own, My Chosen Ones. Jesus.” I benefited from the teachings, and it was a great moment in my spiritual life. I was amazed; I copied your CDs, offered your books, and told my friends about the “Thought of the Day.”
We had communicated to you our concern about the difficulties of living of one of our daughters, who has attempted suicide and has undergone intensive treatments at the hospital. The answer we received was “to go forward in pure faith.” I was certain that it was the right way. Illness meant that the difficulties continued (another suicide attempt, uncontrolled emotions, difficult relations …), and I never stopped repeating those words in my head.
Jesus came to raise our daughter up. One day, she accompanied us to a Eucharistic celebration preceded by adoration. She, who did not believe in anything, was transformed by it. She now prays with us and comes to prayer meetings with me. I read the “Thought of the Day” every day, and I read as well one or two messages in the evening. I try to follow Jesus; I’m certain this is the way. If I fall, I have support to help me get back up.
