How UNHCR changed our life

We lived in Defense, the most posh area of Karachi, Pakistan. 
My sister wrote on human rights issues and fled to Sri Lanka.
 Pakistan being a strict country did not like it. They contacted Friendly Sri Lanka.  We were kept in illegal detention for one month.
In the detention center some softhearted officers told us that are being charged with crimes. We fled from the detention center and since 4 months we are on the run. We live in fear. We have been harassed by drunk house owner. We are almost finished with our money.
My sister sadia made a hundreds of calls to Human rights organizations including UNHCR. She told them that we are trapped. They are all deaf dumb and blind. No body helped us.
We live in this small room. When we were in Karachi our servants had better room than this.




 Now we are on the run. We are hiding from Sri Lankan authorities. Our crime is that we wanted peace in Pakistan and else where.

  2. It is sad that this family is being persecuted for their faith and belief in our Lord Jesus Christ. I am reminded what the Word of God says about this starting with Matthew 24:9, when Jesus said: “Then you will be arrested, persecuted, and killed. You will be hated all over the world because you are my followers. Jesus also warns us again in Matthew 5:11 when he says: “God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are my followers. But what is so comforting is his promises to all who belong to him as he stated in Matthew 5:12, Be happy about it! Be very glad! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted in the same way. And again in Matthew 5:10 God blesses those who are persecuted for doing right, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. So as we can see, God has warned us through his Holy Word that we as followers would be persecuted for our faith and belief in God Son Jesus Christ. So Let us pray for this family that they may not fall but be strengthen by the Lord to withstand this persecution that they are going through at this time. We should also pray that the Lord take away their fear by blessing them with more faith and to give them peace and joy in their hearts, Amen.
