Sen. Lacson Prayer for President Corazon Aquino

In the hearts of millions of Filipinos, President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino remains up to this very moment to be the first and last real woman president of the country. In her lifetime she remained unmoved, undefeated and unchanged. She never wavered for what she believed was right and good for her country and people. When she was president no challenges could deter her. No coups could topple her. No armies could defeat her. Even people around her could not confuse her. She remained pure and humble, always trusted and respected. Her ways were right, her will was unchanging. Her mind was focused on good versus evil. When people felt politically hopeless, they turned to her years after she stepped down from power.

We are sad because her life could have provided the strength in these trying times and now that she's gone and can no longer fight and march with us, those that she left behind must continue to look for the light of her candle during these dark days in our history.

Let us join in prayer not for her soul because we surely know that she is at peace with the Creator, but prayer through her because we know for sure that she will convey our prayers to the Lord.
