Who is the Greatest for can save me?

At noon on Sunday, the date was about November or December of year 1978. In the jail A30 , Tuy Hoa, Phu Yen. I had just finish my lunch. I was sitting on the sidewalk. Nguyen Ly was a former Lieutenant colonel, he was the vice deputy of the chief of bureau 4/QDII. Nguyen Ly came to me and said:
- Help me, I am so sick. Please tell me who is the greatest that can save my life, I may die because my sickness.

I answered him:

-- I am a Catholic, I worship God. He is the One who created heaven and earth. He is the only is greatest one. If you trust what I am telling you, ask God to save your life.

I knew Nguyen Ly was sick for the whole week, but I did not have a chance to come to the dispensary to see him. His sickness is very strange, it was as if he had a ghost in him. In the day time, he walked everywhere, and his eyes were white and he looked up to the sky, and his said many words in disorder. But every day, he has one hour that he is wide awake, as he did not have any sickness. He came to me, when he was felling normally.

After he heard what I had to tell him, he went back to his dispensary. About 15 minutes later, he came back to me and said:

- I am no longer sick.

I asked him:

-- Why are you no longer sick?

- After I heard you, I went back to dispensary and sat on the bed, I prayed to God, and I saw that the courtyard had a cross as big as a mountain, and I felt very good, as if I were never sick.

-- God had cursed you, you should thank God.

Nguyen Ly came back to our group. He came to Catholic friends, who were in jail, and he asked them to teach him about the prayers of Catholics.

In the first month, Nguyen Ly diligent in prayer and learned from his Catholic friends, but in the second month, he became indifferent to prayer and in the third month, his sickness came back as it had before. In the night time he was fettered in the dispensary. He had only one hour in the whole day he became normal. When he was normal, he would leave the dispensary and come to me saying:
- Xuan! Please help me. I may die because my sickness.

I asked him:
-- God already cured your sickness, but what's happening with you?

And I thought maybe he may have done something to make God unhappy with him, therefore I asked:
-- Can you tell me, do you wear something on your body?

- Yes, I have to wear a statue of Buddha, the thing that officers in the same room introduced to me. This statue Buddha I asked in the Buddhist Temple in Pleiku, year 1974.

-- God already cured you, you should worship God, do not worship the other. You should abandon that statue.

- No. I do not want to abandon the Buddha statue, because this is the charm that protects my life.

-- You should abandon that statue, because your life is more important than the thing as a souvenir.

- No. Even if I die, I don’t want to abandon the Buddha statue.

He said that and he left me. About 20 munities later, he came back to me and he said: “I am no longer sick”.

I asked him: “Why are you no longer sick?”

He told me that he had thrown away the Buddha statue. On the same day, he came back to our group and worked with the other prisoners. From that day on, Nguyen Ly diligently prayed and learned about Catholicism from his friends. His faith did not decline like before.

When Nguyen Ly left the jail. I was informed the whole Nguyen Ly’s family where Baptized and became Catholics. When Nguyen Ly’s family came to America, they moved to Houston, Texas. Now Nguyen Ly belongs to the Legio Mariae (The Army of Queen of Heaven, their purpose is to pray and to visit with, and help friends who are having problems or difficulties in their lives.)

I am writing this story, in order to give GLORY TO GOD.

We need to know the truth, because to know the truth will lead us down the right path in life, and to the Eternal Happiness that our souls thirst for.
