[The Five Spiritualities Testimony] 💏At the age of seventy, we began living like newlyweds through the practice of the Five Spiritualities! 💓

💏At the age of seventy, we began living like newlyweds through the practice of the Five Spiritualities.💓

If we are all going to die like this, why are we even born to live?” I was always depressed and completely consumed by worries about the future. My face was never bright.

I wondered, “Would marriage make me happy?” and so I got married. But my husband drank heavily, used abusive language, and even came home with another woman’s foundation and lipstick stains on his clothes. He was completely different from what I had imagined before marriage, and I became even more depressed.

Then one day, a sister brought me to Naju, and I came to the Blessed Mother’s House for the first time. I witnessed the Blessed Mother shedding tears. I thought, “The statue looks so real, like a real person who is deeply sad.” When I looked again, it had completely changed back into a statue.

I cried for four hours straight on my way home. From the moment I began to go to Naju to pray. I also received financial help by God’s grace. Even though I didn’t have even ten KRW, I was able to be allocated two houses.

I had searched in many places, but I could not find God’s presence. However, as I continued going to Naju, I became absolutely certain: “God truly exists!” From that moment, I thought, “This is where I must go. Even if I die, this is place where I must go.”

But every time I returned home from Naju, my husband would create chaos, threatening to kill me while holding a knife. Whenever I went home, my heart would pound violently, yet I continued going to Naju for my soul to survive!

One day, he tore up photos of the Eucharistic Miracle in Mama Julia’s mouth and shouted unspeakable curses. The situation became completely out of control.

In my heart, I cried out, “Blessed Mother, please help me!” Suddenly, he screamed, “Ahhh!” ran to the bathroom, washed his eyes repeatedly, and became as gentle as a lamb. About a month later, he shared, “I was terrified that day. The hand I used to hit you was covered in bruises, my eyes were burning, and I thought I was going to die.”

After that, he never bothered me again when I go to Naju. And the Blessed Mother continued to help me so that I could keep going to Naju—many times over. I thought, “Now the Blessed Mother is truly helping me.” With the firm resolve that “whether I live or die, I must go to Naju,” I kept going to Naju faithfully.

Then, through Mama Julia’s sacrifices, the Five Spiritualities truly took root within me. When my husband would become very angry, I would offer it up, praying, “I offer this in union with the suffering of Jesus,” and “I offer this in union with the suffering of Mama Julia.” As I did that, my husband’s anger would gradually melt away, and he would say that he was at fault. I thought, “Ah! It worked! This is amazing. It really works!” I rejoiced to myself, saying, “I’ve won! I’ve succeeded—spiritually succeeded! Victory!” and I was filled with joy.


Then one day, my husband said, “I am a very blessed man. Even though I caused you so much suffering, you never ran away. You took such good care of our family and treated me so well. I know all of it.” He continued, “I was far too cruel to you, who are like an angel,” and he sincerely repented.

I also said to him, “Even though our situation isn’t easy, you bought me a car to use, you help take care of our grandchild, and since you like vegetables, we don’t spend much on food. I am grateful for so many things you do for me.” I counted what I am grateful for to him and expressed thanks to him. Then he became very happy.

My husband had a hot temper and used harsh words whenever he was upset, but after that, he no longer lost his temper nor used abusive language. In the past, when he acted that way, I would cry, or I would lash out and say things like, “Just wait until you die!”

But after I began offering everything up, all those negative feelings completely disappeared. At the age of seventy, we began living like newlyweds! I am so deeply grateful to the Lord, the Blessed Mother of Naju, and Mama Julia.

Even with my in-laws, I used to struggle, but as I kept Mama Julia in my heart, things changed. When my sisters- or brothers-in-law called saying they couldn’t afford tuition, I would lend them money, take out my credit card to help them, or even cancel savings accounts to support them.

When my sister-in-law was busy farming and couldn’t properly care for her children, I brought them into my home and raised them for two years—twenty-four hours a day—without receiving any money. I also helped during every farming season. Because of this, my aunt-in-law would say, “There is no one like you in the world. Even among churchgoers, there is no one like you. You are an angel.”

When I visited, she would run out barefoot calling, “Angel!” I would think, “Thank you so much, Blessed Mother. As I try to live according to Mama Julia’s spirituality, I am now being called an angel.” I truly believe that going to Naju itself is better than winning the lottery. The emptiness and pride I was born with were completely healed in Naju, and my soul has been set free. Amen! 🙌🙌🙌

Whenever my legs cramped or my body was unwell, applying the miraculous water brought healing. When I have some disease not to be healed, I would think, “There must be God’s will in this. This is the suffering I am meant to receive, as Mama Julia taught” and I give all glory to the Lord and the Blessed Mother!
I am endlessly grateful to Mama Julia. I love you. Thank you! 💗💗💗
