When visiting with my mother on Easter, she became extremely irate and physically attacked me. Grabbed me by the neck and started shaking me. I have recommitted myself to the Lord since my father died in 2012. I have been growing in faith every day. God had His hand on me at that moment, as I did not strike back or retaliate in any way. I kept telling her to stop, calm down, and I was leaving to go home. The intense rage and fury as she spat on my face shook me to my core.

I ask for God's Peace and Grace as I need to love her where she is at and as God loves her. I ask for Patience and Forgiveness for the days forward.
