Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I have had 4 pain free days - first time in months - I know the healing process has started - even though I have so little faith and am a bit like Tess of the D'Urbervilles staring in the fire wondering what wolves are waiting in the shadows

I am rejoicing and thanking God and continuing to storm heaven to feel well - but I am also trying to see the redemptive aspect of suffering.

I am getting through the days by praying constantly, writing a journal and taking a rest in the afternoons. My dh has helped me get organized and life is so much more peaceful.

Please keep me in your prayers that my body will continue to heal.

I am so grateful to you all for prayers.

Praying for your continued healing, Marilyn. Try not to worry about the future, which is in God's very capable and loving Hands. Instead, enjoy living in this glorious pain-free moment!

Marilyn-

You are so amazing with all the suffering you've endured. Praying that life lets up a little and you continue to be pain free.
