Prayers requested for barker. She lost her husband today

Posted on 04/20/2006 6:36:36 PM PDT by trussell


 


 


 

I need prayer very badly

Today my husband died from a self-inflected gunshot wound to the head. He had a lot of medical problems and was suffering from severe depression. We will never know what demons were in his head that drove him to this.

Our two sons and his daughter desperately need prayers to help them through this. I have seen the power of FReeper prayer and it is awesome.

This just happened today and reality hasn't sunk in yet.

Many thanks
barker

Prayers for you and family.

Most Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have compassion on us and to forgive us, do not look upon our sins but upon our trust which we place in Your infinite goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart, and never let us escape from It. We beg this of You by Your love which unites You to the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially upon poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion show us Your mercy, that we may praise the omnipotence of Your mercy for ever and ever. Amen.


Jesus, I Trust in You

CERTAINLY.

Lord God, only you can comfort in such situations. Only you know the ending from the beginning. Only you have infinite compassion.

Please be with our loved ones with intense comfort, Presence, the Peace that passes understanding. May each relationship remaining be thickened in your Love, support and purpose. Give wisdom, understanding, Peace, Rest, in Jesus' Name.

ANGELS ON ASSIGNMENT

Being the senior pastor of Boise ID's First Assembly of God, he'd believed and taught all his life that such situations as you are in could be extremely bleak spiritually and in terms of raw hope and understanding. He discovered he wasn't necessarily right on that score.

I found the book extremely hope generating at an extremely bleak time in my own life. Perhaps it could be so to some in your family. It certainly described God The Father as I knew Him from Scripture. And, it was vividly full of The Father's Love in the midst of horrendous mystifying crises.

In any case, BIG HUGS and prayers,

In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum;
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.

Oh barker, I am just so darn sorry.

I send you Isaiah 61:3--

Christ will...
comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who grieve in Zion-
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the LORD
for the display of his splendor.

You are an oak. Trust Him and know you're in my prayers.
