Exclamation unsure mother seeking for Holy Ghost

Yeaterday after church i called my parents to share scriptures that my pastor gave me that gave evidence that recieving the Holy Gost and speaking in tongues is biblical and for the people of today and not just for the first church. I told them receiving the Holy Ghost deepens your relationship with Jesus and strengthens your faith (along with many other things). My dad said he was content with his relationship with Jesus so he left. But my mother stayed onthe phone and talked with me. She told me shes always felt that something has been missing in her relationship with Jesus and that shes felt empty and down for so long, and she doesnt know what to do. She started praying, and asking God to fill her with His Spirit. After a while of just me and her praying, i got my land lord to pray with us as well. Eventually she called it a night and kind of just gave up. So we told her to find a Pentecostal church near her (shes lives in NC and i live in MS) and ask for a Bible study to gather information. I called her today to give her a name and number to a church that was recommended to me by my pastor. She said she just isnt sure. That last night she just felt like nothing was going to happen. Satan is working overtime to keep her from seeking Jesus. She knows shes missing something that is keeping her from feeling whole and complete, but she doesnt know what to do about it and the strangeness of this different environment scares her and intimidates her. I know this is lengthy and i greatly appreciate you reading this...please pray that God will encourage and strenghten my mother's faith and that she would be hungry for His Spirit. Please pray that she will seek out this pastor and that she will be open to what he has to share with her. Please also pray that the pastor will be prepared to talk with her and help guide her to the truth. Please pray that my father's heart will be softened and that he will not be content and that he would have a burning desire to grow in Jesus. Thank you so much for joining me in prayer.
