The President Who Campaigned for Prayer

I was just five years old when Edsa I happened.I could still remember how my late younger brother John-John was still shouting Cowee Cowee Cowee along with the other people we see on the television. The late President Cory Aquino became the voice of freedom at that time.She continued what Benigno Aquino started.She faught for him, her family and eventually she faught for all of us because she believed in equality for all.There was a report that also said that Pres. Aquino was a humble president. She never abused her power even in the little ways like using the wang wang.Among all the things she has done I guess one that stands out the most is her being the model of great faith that during adverse times she would always advise anyone to pray.She would just pray and for her it was the greatest weapon against anything.We believed her because we see her doing it, not like other people who tell us to have faith but we can't relate well because we don't see an example.In a way I would agree with one of the facebookers saying she should be considered a saint because I think she has lived a life of less sins among us all.She was simple in her ways and humble in her achievements.We can see her modesty in her face and in her clothes.Everything she did she did because it will make her closer to heaven.I think she is there now with our hero, Ninoy Aquino. Just like Ninoy Aquino she is also our hero, a hero who will always campaign for the power of prayer even in heaven.
