Summary

SummaryI was a proud senator, wrongfully charged with subversion and thrown into solitary confinement under martial law. Alone in a tiny cell, I questioned God’s presenceβ€”until I felt His strength lift me. After years of refusal to stand before a military tribunalβ€”facing a firing squad sentenceβ€”I endured a heart attack that revealed progressive angina. God’s hand led me to the Philippine Heart Center and, in a miraculous moment, I was granted passage to Dallas for a triple bypass surgery. It was there, on the operating table, that I truly found freedom in Christ. His grace carried me from prison bars to new life, and now I return to minister to my suffering people with unwavering faith. πŸ™β€οΈβ€πŸ©ΉβœοΈ
