I HAVE VICTORY IN MY FAMILY!
My family seemed picture-perfect, but in
actual fact it was like a house on fire. We
constantly argued, even for the smallest
things.
I couldn’t call my house a home while I
was growing up; I was actually put off
the idea of having a family of my own.
I can remember my sister saying that
she couldn’t stand the thought of even
getting married!
The family prayers at the UCKG Help
Centre were a great help to restoring the
unity between us. We learnt valuable tips
that helped us a lot. We turned negative
situations to positive outcomes, simply by
having a different attitude when situations
arose.
Today we can call our house a home.
The love and peace in my home today
is beautiful. Our family is now picture
perfect. By the way my sister, who couldn’t
stand the thought of marriage is getting
married this month.
I would suffer from excruciating headaches
and would fall asleep only to

as my father and my mother
would abuse me.

After continually putting
into practice the advice
that I would be given
in the meetings at the
Help Centre, I no longer
suffer from the problems
that I used to. I am much
stronger and I now enjoy a
life of tranquillity.
