"In August 1273, while in exile on Sado Island, the Daishonin wrote a letter to Shijo Kingo and his wife, Nichigen-nyo—disciples in Kamakura who were struggling with the illness of their young daughter, Kyo'o. In it, he tells them that he has been praying to the gods of the sun and moon for her recovery every moment of the day (see WND-1, 412). And he declares: 'Kyo o's misfortune will change into fortune. Muster your faith, and pray to this Gohonzon. Then what is there that cannot be achieved?' (WND-1, 412).

"Every family has its problems and raising children is a universal challenge. There may be times when unexpected difficulties befall our families or our children. But we have the lion's roar of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo! We have the Gohonzon, of which the Daishonin states: 'I, Nichiren, have inscribed my life in sumi ink, so believe in the Gohonzon with your whole heart' (WND-1, 412).

"By rousing courageous faith, 'misfortune will change into fortune' (WND-1, 412) without fail. We can transform any hardship into future good fortune for our families and children.

"This is the power of faith and practice that 'changes poison into medicine' taught to us by Nichiren Daishonin, the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law, over 750 years ago."
