(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa in May 2010, and I am now age 52. A practitioner who studied the Fa with me was illegally arrested in March 2013. I was so frightened that I could not sleep after I heard what had happened.
I asked Master for help and sent forth righteous thoughts. This helped temporarily, but the fear resurfaced, and I tossed and turned until the morning.
My sister came to visit the next day. I told her what had happened, and she suggested that I hide at a relative's home who lived out of town. My son also thought that this was a good idea.
For three days, they kept trying to persuade me to leave home and stay out of town. They believed it was the safest thing to do. By noon of the third day, my son asked, “I'm going to ask you for the last time. Are you leaving or not?” I noticed my state of mind when I saw the fear in my son.
A series of questions ran through my mind, “Am I really that afraid? Isn't Master with me? Then what am I afraid of?” I felt calm after I thought of Master, and I knew what I was supposed to do.
I told my son, “'Fear' is not a part of me. There is nowhere safer than being around Master!”
As soon as those words came out of my mouth, I felt a jolt through my body, and I immediately relaxed. The substance of fear disappeared without a trace. My son burst out laughing and stopped asking me to hide.
Nothing happened after that.
