Revered Master,

Greetings to you! I am a child from China and my name is Ruru. I am seven years and nine months old and am in the second grade. I am told I had congenital heart disease and a heart transplant when I was two. During that time, I lay dead for several days and my mother cried every day. My father is Your disciple, and he and his friends prayed that You would Bless me. Then You, the Master Who responds to every plea, brought me back from the angel of death and gave me a new life. Many children have the same disease as I do, yet several lose their lives, no matter how much money is spent on their care. Thank You, Master, for having saved me at this young age.

Also, I had a heavy cold not long ago, and despite many injections did not recover. The doctor gave me a thorough check-up, and diagnosed severe hepatitis B. My parents and teachers were worried, and I myself did not feel well. That night, I had a nightmare. The following day, I found my long-lost necklace with Your photo and my eyes brightened up. With great cheer, I quickly put on the necklace and told myself, "I have Master to protect me. I'm not afraid. I'm not sick at all. I'm a healthy person.'

On the third day, I went to the hospital for a re-examination and the results showed that I had no disease at all. Moreover, my body had produced hepatitis B antibodies. I cannot describe the gratitude and excitement we felt—me, my family members and all those who had been worried about me. I could not help exclaiming, "It's a miracle! It's a miracle! My omnipotent Master, You've saved my life again.'

I usually keep a vegetarian diet, as does my father, and we are both in good health. But my mother does not understand the benefits of vegetarianism and occasionally cooks meat for me. I fall seriously ill whenever I eat meat, but if I disobey my mother she will beat me. I can only pray that Master blesses my mother so that she may soon become enlightened. I also hope to be initiated soon and become Your disciple. Master, Your child kowtows to You with deep respect.

Best wishes to Master for good health, happiness, ease and success in all Your endeavors.

Respectfully,
Your child
