Only Six Months to Live

Three years ago, a Buddhist woman named Ohm Mar was diagnosed with liver cancer.  

“The doctor told me I only had six months to live,” she told CBN.  “I became very weak.”

At first Ohm Mar told us she went to a temple in Myanmar to pray.  Then she said that she remembered that, as a child, some Christians told me about “their God.”

“But I never believed in it,” she added. “When I got sick I started to ask Jesus to help me.  I felt stronger.”

Ohm wanted to learn more about Jesus and she wanted her daughter Yamin to know about Him too.  So together they started watching CBN’s Superbook, which aired on Myanmar’s national network.    

“At first I was drawn to the animation,” said Yamin. “But I also liked the stories from the Bible. Then I watched the story  He Is Risen.  I was touched by His great sacrifice.  I am happy that Jesus came alive again!”

One day a Christian friend watched Superbook with them.

“After the episode,” said Ohm Mar, “we sang the Superbook Salvation Song together. Our friend explained what the song meant.  Then she helped us to pray to give our lives to Jesus.”

Ohm and Yamin now attend church together, and Ohm reports that her cancer symptoms have disappeared!  

“I got healed!” exclaimed Ohm. “Superbook helped me trust in God more.  I have surrendered everything into God’s hands.”
