I wanted to follow up on my prayer request back in late June, as I underwent the back surgery a week ago today. Through the grace of God the surgery went extremely well and recovery, although admittedly difficult and painful, is going smoothly. Thanks be to God! And I am getting better every day. I wanted to thank you and all of your readers who so kindly sent up their prayers. Additional prayers would always be greatly appreciated that recovery continues to go well and that I will soon be pain-free in my lower back. \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, thank you for help this person to heal and for taking away their pain. We ask that you would finish the job and bless them with complete health of body, soul and spirit through Christ our Lord. Amen! Mother Mary, pray for them!<\/p>\n
