I'm Thon Pharin, 14 years old. I'm a student and the second of four children. My parents are farmers and laborers. I live with my mother and younger siblings, while my father works far away to support us.
Two years ago, my life changed. I embraced Jesus Christ through the teachings of Fountain of Hope. I was the only one in my family who believed, and sometimes I faced opposition, even being told to stop attending their classes.
My school was a long walk. The journey was difficult, but the words of Matthew 7:7 inspired me. I prayed for strength against the opposition and for a bicycle to make my journey easier. One day, my prayers were answered! I was overwhelmed with joy, knowing God had heard my plea. The opposition from my family also stopped, allowing me to learn and worship freely with the Fountain of Hope teachers.
I am so grateful to be chosen as a child of God. I continue to pray that my family will also come to believe.
Finally, I thank the Fountain of Hope teachers for their constant encouragement through the word of God. May God bless them with grace, health, and safety.
