I'm a male law student, and I would like to testify to a grace I received through the intercession of Pedro Ballester.
On 1 June, my paternal family (my uncles’) received the sad news that my uncle, who had suffered a heart attack and then a stroke, was in a coma. He was to have his devices switched off because he was unresponsive and would therefore be in the last days of his life.
The next day, my father went to visit him and on the 3rd, he was extubated and responded well. On the 5th, he was better and was taken to his room.
On the 11th, I, who hadn't yet heard the family's WhatsApp messages about these improvements, said a private prayer to dear Pedro Ballester, asking for my uncle's complete recovery and that he would even regain consciousness. Practically at the same time as I was saying the prayer, between 11pm and midnight, at 11.22pm, the following message was sent to the group, forwarded by one of my uncle’s daughters and posted on the family group:
*Good evening Cousins!*
I'd like to share with everyone that contrary to all the doctors' statistics, our father's extubation was successful. He woke up and responded well over the last few days. Although it was not yet the time foreseen for him, he returned home today.
In the certainty that everyone's prayers were fundamental to my father's condition now, my family thanks you. Praise be to God!
I was surprised to come across this message the next day. I had prayed for my uncle's complete recovery and, on the same day, basically at the same time, this message was sent.
I don't know if his recovery was exclusively due to this intercession, but certainly the prayer to Jesus, through the intercession of Pedro Ballester, echoed in heaven and had some effectiveness!
Many thanks to Opus Dei for being a factory of saints and children who love God and who love him to above all things in their ordinary lives and in their daily suffering!
Filially,
