Fill Up Your Heart program - letter from a young person

Hello to all of the FEBC Team! I have followed this program for a long time now. I love the programs very much. It has good content and knowledge about the Bible. I live in Nonthaburi province where I used to live with my Mother, but I have moved to Kanchanaburi Province. When I was a small child I was very lonely as my Mother didn't let me go anywhere except going to school and to the shop to buy things. But the hardest thing for me was that my mother didn't ever speak to me about my Father. So when my Mother died last year, I heard from my Grandmother that my Father died when I was just 7 days old. He died when a car ran into him. So now I am living here with my grandmother. She tells me off unreasonably, until I am now thinking that there's no-one who has loved me except for my Mother, and I have even thought to commit suicide. But my Mother always taught me that suicide was not right. FEBC Team do you think my life is like a drama? But it is the truth. I am so lonely and don't know who to open up and talk with. If I would like to become a child of God could it be possible? And please send me your latest booklet. Please don't read my letter over the air. Thank you.

More Precious than Gold program

Hello to Auntie programmer (please don't read my letter on the program) There's a matter that I feel very unhappy about. I am out of strength, and bored with life. Without hope. There's many things come in as a swirling storm until I really don't want to see another day. I don't want to wake and have to persevere because I am tired and very tired. I was born not so well it seems….not pretty, not rich. But every since I can remember, I noticed that I was different to other people and my Father also was different. When I went to school, friends teased me and they didn't seem to like me. At that time I didn't think about it much, but when I left school at 6th grade and out into the community I was aware of it. I observed people didn't want to be friends with me. I went to apply for a job at a factory in Bangkok. One person accepted me, but another person spoke about my skin condition. They asked to see me on the first day I started work. After that "inspection" they gave me money and told me I didn't need to come to work the following day. That day I felt very sad indeed and cried all the way home. It is several years now but I can't forget how it was. Another time I applied for work in Sakhon Nakhon. Some people showed dislike for me right to my face and spoke horribly to me and so again I had to leave my work. I want to ask, is it sin that I was born with neurofibromatosis?
