"Therefore take heed: our own self-assumed good works lead us to and into ourselves, that we seek only our own benefit and salvation; but God’s commandments drive us to our neighbor, that we may thereby benefit others to their salvation. Just as Christ on the Cross prayed not for Himself alone, but rather for us, when He said, 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do,' so we also must pray for one another." — Martin Luther

She continues to have muscle spasms in her hips and back which prevents her from even driving to work. She's changed doctors and her new doctor is reluctant to give her more than a temporary handicap tag. On Memorial Day, I witnessed my wife take 5 minutes to move from our car, parked in front of the door of the urgent care. I've never seen her in this much pain, even with childbirth. I'm worried and scared for the health of my wife. Please pray that her urgent care prescription helps her recover enough to go to her doctor. Please pray for her doctor to find a reasonable explanation for all the pain she is experiencing. Please pray for patience for me and that my anxieties don't get the better of me and that I have strength of patience for doctors I've not met, but have not helped my wife find peace and comfort and a solution or answer to her condit
