:sunflower::sunflower:Hi loved ones!

I'm sorry to bother everyone again, but I need some prayers.

Mom started crying today - she had just had a sneeze attack, as she has them 2-3 times every day and has had them since I was a child. She said "I am so tired and tired of this, and tired of this world", while she wept. It hurt my heart to see that. Please pray for her. We have no idea what causes it. But it worries me.

I had major back surgery on January 12, 2017 (this year). It was for L4-L5 L5-S1 PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) and ALIF (Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) Fusion and Laminectomy. That is why I wasn't here for a while. I'm just now able to sit up on the computer for a longer period of time.

Thank our Heavenly Father - I made it through the surgery! I had a few issues after it, had a touch of pneumonia. But all is much MUCH better with my back. I cannot believe, that after 10 years of constant pain and no doctor believing that I actually had pain (I live in a small town, and they close nit, they only help those who they 'know'). But I went out of town and got a great doctor, and with God's hands guiding his, my back is about 75% better than it was. WOW!

Praise the LORD! I get goosebumps when I read Psalm 148 - and that's what I feel when I think of how our Father got me through the surgery!!

Okay, also, pray that my brother will have an encounter with Jesus, somehow. Maybe he has but ... he's leaning for panentheism so much, it scares me. I know God is in all things, but my brother says Jesus was only a teacher.

Pray for Mary, she's having trouble losing weight for her health's sake, and her husband wants to put her in a nursing home, and she's so young yet!

Pray for "the ones I have in mind", and Heavenly Father will know who you're talking about. There's sooo many to list that need prayer for healing, wisdom, great faith, better health, protection, and to know they are loved (and for one friend who thinks she's ugly, and she is now engaged in unhealthy lifestyle and thinking).

Thank you, my brothers and sisters. I love you guys. I did indeed see all the prayer requests here recently. Though I didn't type anything, I pray for them too. I pray for all who read this as well, and blessings multiplied upon you, just for glancing at this request. Thank you all so much! You've helped so much in the past - your prayers are appreciated in abundance!

Love you guy. <3 :wave: :sunflower: :rose:
