(Minghui.org) I am a 64-year-old village woman. I began to practice Falun Dafa in 1998. At the end of July 2023, the region I lived in suffered heavy rains that had not occurred for a century. The rain continued until July 31. On the morning of August 1, flood waters from surrounding reservoirs were released without warning.
On August 1, I went to deliver meals to my husband as usual. He lives on the north side of the village, where he has a farm. I carried food and stock feed on my electric bicycle. I reached the farm in a few minutes. Flood waters had flowed into our farm. I shouted: “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
In an instant, the entire cow pen was submerged. Hay, tools, and vegetables piled next to the pen were washed away. A cow in the pen cried with all its might in fright, calling to us to save it. I shouted at the cattle to run for their lives toward higher ground.
My husband said: “Push your bicycle to the side of the road.” I could not push my bicycle due to the huge amount of water. Coincidentally, there was an electric well house next to me. It was surrounded by iron railings. My husband tied my bicycle to the railings with a hose. The railings were not damaged by the water, so my bicycle was safe.
Rapid floods turned the originally level road into a deep ditch. Trees and electric poles on the side of the road were washed down. My husband and I were trapped in an “island,” and we were in a dangerous situation. I stood on the “island” which was only 30 meters away from the main road.
It was safe on the main road and many people stood there. I asked them to pull us to a safe place using a forklift, but everyone thought it was too dangerous and no one wanted to help us.
I stood on the “island” for nearly a day. In my heart, I kept asking Master Li (Dafa’s founder) for help. I also recited “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Although I was in danger, I did not feel scared or anxious. I knew I must overcome this tribulation because I had a mission to assist Master in the Fa rectification and awaken sentient beings.
At around 3:00 p.m., someone helped us make a phone call for help. The fire brigade took me and my husband to a safe place.
That night, my husband and I returned to our house in the village. After 8:00 p.m., neighbors told us that everything in our farm had been washed away. My husband remembered that his ID, medicare card, money, and other important things were kept in the house at the farm.
Most importantly, we did not manage to take the Dafa books I had given my husband to read. My husband kept blaming himself and sighed for losing the Dafa books. I comforted him and asked Master for help. Both of us could not sleep that night.
In the morning, my husband got up quietly and went to the farm. Soon, he phoned me and said in surprise: “The flood waters are smaller. The house and everything in it is safe and sound. Most of the cattle are fine, don’t worry.”
I went to the farm. The waters had turned the south side of the road into a deep ditch. The wall on the north side was pulled down and a newly constructed bridge on the east side had been washed away as well. Yet the tiny house my husband lived in on the farm was fine. Most of our cattle ran to an elevated area and stayed there. They were fine too. It was indeed amazing!
I know all this came from Master’s protection. Thank you Master and Dafa!
I wrote my experience down to tell people how extraordinary Falun Dafa is and in the hope that people will remember “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” If you remember these phrases in times of danger, you will be protected. This experience also shows how cruel the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) is. It released flood waters without warning and caused people’s property to be damaged without offering any compensation.
I hope Chinese citizens quit the Party and choose a bright future for themselves!
