We lost our son today (vanity - prayer request)
FreeRepublic ^ | 4/12/2016 | self

Posted on 04/12/2016 12:07:42 AM PDT by Marie

Today, we found out that we've lost our 22 year old son.

He'd been missing for a couple of days and they found the body this evening. He wrecked his motorcycle and ended up in a ditch where nobody could see.

I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to accept this. I don't know what to do with this.

And I can't pray.

I'm not mad at G-d or anything like that. I mean that I have no words. I don't know how.

Can you please pray for me? Just add me to your prayer list for a little while?

I cannot grasp that this loving young man is gone from my life forever. I don't know how to be all right with that.

I know that I need to sleep, but that seems like such a strange thing to do. I don't know how to function. What's normal when he's not on this planet?

Dear Lord, I miss him so much already.

You can’t pray because there are no words for this.

God knows what’s in our hearts.
All we can do is try to lift them up to Him
and pray for His mercy in Jesus’ Holy Name.

Praying, hard. You are an Army wife, you have a built in support network, tap into it.

Prayers that your shock and grief run a course that fits His purpose for you and others in your family, and in the circle of friends in your and your son’s life. I can’t imagine the loss you feel, or even any words that could give the least bit of comfort. But I am thinking of you, and others in a similar situation, facing sudden, undeserved losses of staggering proportions. God’s mysterious ways are sometimes cruel. There is no human understanding of it. If you have faith, it is under a most severe test. You may have to seek the company of others, because it will be hard for even friends to cope, for fear of not knowing what to say or how to act. Sure, they will be around, a lot, for a few days or weeks maybe - but you will need support for the rest of your life.

Praying that somehow you will see the love of God in spite of your devastating loss. God’s love shown by others, your family and perhaps a small miracle or two. I have no words - being the father of a 21-year old boy myself. I can’t imagine.
