TERLEA MIRON, 78 ani

In tinerete, Miron nu s-a gandit ca va ramane singur. Viata i-a oferit multe surprize. “Intotdeauna m-am gandit ca sotia mea o sa traiasca mai mult decat mine si ca nu o sa ajung singur. Am luat-o de nevasta, chiar daca avea patru copii. Copiii erau la scoala si am avut grija de ei. I-am crescut. Acum, ei stau bine. Au situatie buna, dar nu au mai vrut sa ma tina”.

O alta dorinta a batranului a fost sa-si petreaca batranetea impreuna cu sora lui, insa nu a fost posibil. “Nu m-a primit. Si ea este batrana si singura. Si-a luat pe cineva care sa o ajute in gospodarie ca nu se mai descurca. Daca am avazut ca nici sora mea nu poate sa ma tina, m-am gandit ca nu mai am alte neamuri la care sa ma duc? Ce puteam sa fac? M-am bucurat ca am ajuns la Casa Betania”.

De un an, Miron este gazduit la Casa “Betania” din Hateg si este recunoscator Domnului ca i-a purtat de grija si i-a indreptat pasii spre Hateg. Frecventeaza Biserica Penticostala din Hateg unde il lauda pe Dumnezeu pentru ceea ce i-a pregatit la batranete. Regretul lui este ca: “Am muncit prea mult in viata mea si nu m-am ales cu nimic… Si cand eram copil am suferit. Am avut tata vitreg. Mama a fost slujnica acolo si ne-a scos din sat. Am lucrat in serviciu de paza militarizata. Am lucrat si acasa, in gospodarie. Acum am prea multe boli. Le-am notat intr-un caiet… Ma dor picioarele, dar ma mai plimb ca sa treaca timpul. E greu sa fii singur…Stau si ma gandesc ce o sa mai fie? As vrea sa mai traiesc cat o sa vrea Dumnezeu. El imi calauzeste pasii si-mi poarta de grija.TERLEA MIRON, 78 years old

In his youth, Miron never thought he would end up alone. Life had reserved for him many surprises. “I always thought that my wife would outlive me and that I wouldn’t end up alone. I took her as a wife, even though she had four children. The children were in school and I took care of them. I raised them. Now, they have a good material situation, but they didn’t want to take care of me.”

Another of Miron’s wishes was to spend his old age with his sister, but it wasn’t possible. “She couldn’t take me in. She’s alone and old too; she took someone to help her out with the household, because she cannot handle it anymore. If I saw that not even my sister could take care of me, I thought: do I have any other relatives to take care of me? What could I do? I was glad I ended up in “Bethany” House.”

It has been a year since Miron is hosted at “Bethany” House in Hateg and he is grateful to the Lord that He took care of him and guided his steps towards Hateg. He goes to the Pentecostal Church in Hateg, where he praises God for what He has reserved for him in his old age. His regret is only that: “I worked too much in my life and ended up with nothing…I suffered even as a child. I had a step father. My mother was a servant there and took us out of the village. I worked as a military guard; I even worked at home, in our household. I have to many diseases now. I wrote them down in a notebook. It is hard to be alone. I sit around and wonder…what next? I wish to live as much as the Lord will allow me to. He guides my steps and takes care of me.”
