Prayers needed
Vanity ^ | 10/28/06 | Self

Posted on 10/28/2006 2:26:57 AM PDT by Graybeard58

My wife just called and notified me that our son-in-law just passed away.

He was 34 years old and it appears that he either had a heart attack or a stroke.

There are complications, my wife is in Flint, Michigan on business, my son-in-law passed away in Jackson, Missouri and I am in Pekin, Illinois. My wife can't get a flight to St.Louis, rent a car and get there as fast as she can by driving straight through.

I am waiting for my son and then I will drive down there and join her. None of us have had any sleep but we have to get down there to be with our daughter.

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

So so very sad. When sudden tragedy envelopes a family, it's so hard .. to bear and to understand. God be with you during this agonizing time .. every second, every step. He is in charge .. He is with you .. He is your source of everything you need right now .. strength, peace, comfort and healing in your grieving ... as you face the days ahead. His plan is mystifying and yet sovereign. Dear Lord, lay your infinite blessings on this your grieving family.

In this time of great sorrow for your daughter, his family, and all your family – know that God is with you to comfort you and draw you into His bosom to show you His great love and compassion!


"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles,

So that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows." (2 Corinthians 1:3-6)

May God watch over you and your family now and keep them from harm. May He give peace and strength to endure this trial. May He comfort you in your hour of grief, in Jesus' name.

God Bless your daughter, who must now live without him. God Bless your son-in-law, who was taken too soon. I pray God gives you and your family the strength to help her. In Christ's name, Amen.

Praying with all for the comfort and grace and hope that come only through Jesus Christ to your family. How sad I feel for your loss, yet how comforted we to know He is Risen from the dead and is Lord. May Christ Jesus the Hope of Mankind manifest Himself to thee and all the family in many ways for your help at this very hard time.

Thank you for the ping, Brad's Gramma - your ministry is vital.
