Have you ever faced a challenge so heavy that you felt like giving up?
Veronica did.
Battling an illness that drained her strength and stole her career, she once prayed not for healing—but for her life to end.
But God was not done with her story.
Raised by a strict military father, Veronica grew up suppressing her emotions and carrying silent anger toward him.
Veronica found comfort in watching The 700 Club Asia. One night, the program prayed for families.
“It felt like they knew exactly what I was going through,” she recalled. She reached out to ask for prayer for her father’s transformation. The prayer counselor assured her, “God is not yet done with your father.” Those words gave her hope.
Years later, God blessed Veronica with a loving husband and family. But in 2012, she faced her greatest battle. She was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The news was heartbreaking for the family. Veronica often saw her husband, Frederick, crying and praying.
“I was asking God, ‘Lord, why? Why wasn’t it me instead?’” Frederick recalled.
As her condition worsened, Veronica got to the point of asking God to take her life just to end her suffering. But his husband kept her in his prayers.
While taking care of Veronica, Frederick continued to pray and found encouragement through watching The 700 Club Asia, where he heard testimonies of healing. Filled with hope, he called the Prayer Center, knowing there were people who would join him in praying for his wife.
“The prayer counselor reminded me of God’s promise that healing is already bought by Jesus on the Cross. And I felt God’s steadfast presence.” He also declared Psalm 118:17 to his wife, “I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done.”
Even when she felt hopeless, God finally answered Veronica’s prayers for her father. To her surprise, she experienced the love she longed for from him, who prayed for her alongside her mother. In that moment, she realized that God was restoring not just her health, but her family.
Soon after, the doctors told Veronica that she needed dialysis. Her doctor told her that her only hope is prayer. With unshakable faith, she surrendered everything to God.
During worship, she received a vision of her kidneys, healthy and whole. When she returned for treatment, the doctor was surprised that her body had recovered, and she never needed dialysis.
Because of what she experienced and how God moved mightily in her life, Veronica now gives faithfully to CBN Asia, hoping others will also experience God’s love. She is a living testimony to how powerful prayers are. Her life is proof that we have a miracle-working, powerful, and faithful God.
