For the love of my family

To the people of this community, my name is Yuriko and I am 19 yrs old. I am born in a Catholic family of 5 members in the Philippines.

I love my family and I would do anything to keep my family together. Recently I have been given a sign by God to change for the better. I read a testimony of this girl from Ecuador (I guess most of you read this already), and the thing that struck me was not that she saw both heaven and hell but what Jesus told her to tell humanity to change and to come back to him, to follow the old ways of his chosen people.

It was sad to know that our Father weeped for what humanity has become. That's why I wanted to make a change not only for myself but for the ones I love, especially my family. I want them to know God's message for us to change and repent for our sins.

My father is a kind and funny man, he makes me laugh even when I am down, he forgives and tries to keep our family together. My mother is a beautiful woman with a good sense of humor and beautiful voice, she helped me grow up to be a proper lady (I'm still adjusting to that until now) and taught me and siblings how to sing since we were young. My sister who is also beautiful younger than me by a year and a half, she excels a lot in photography and singing, she can make friends with a lot of people easier than me and is fun to be with. My little brother the man of the house next to my father, he is a bit mature compared to his age but he still has that little boy in him, he plays the guitar and enjoys sports.

I lived with them since the very beginning and we all have our ups and downs. That's why I would do everything to keep us together (maybe not physically but emotionally and spiritually connected) even until our very last breath.

Slowly I am getting away from the temptations that I have become accustomed to in the past and I am changing myself to become a better person for God. 

The reason I am posting this my fellow brothers and sisters, is for you to help me spread the word of God to my family and love ones and to make them see and feel what our God has gone through to save us from sin and hopefully make them see how to change themselves for the better of our holy community.

I ask for God's guidance and also your guidance my brothers and sisters to help me in my mission of spreading this word. I am still new at this since I am starting all-over again.

God bless you and thank you for taking your time into reading this.
