Prayer Request for my Family Upon the Death of my Daughter
12/3/2015 | Rfreedom4u

Posted on 12/03/2015 7:26:06 PM PST by rfreedom4u

In the past I have posted regarding my wife's mental illness and the tough times we have endured because of it. Now I am devastated to tell you all that our 19 year old daughter took her own life on November 23rd. She was diagnosed as bi-polar and was very distraught over her best friend's suicide last year.

I've never had to go through anything near this bad and I pray none of you ever do. The loss of one's child is beyond horrendous. So far we've been doing ok but there are periods of extreme grief out of the blue and many tears. She was laid to rest this past Monday.

I ask that anyone who is willing to please pray for my daughter and my entire family.

I am so, so sorry. As a parent myself, my heart aches for you. I can’t even imagine it.

I hope it may help in some tiny way if I mention that the night my grandfather passed away (he had been ailing for some time with Alzheimer’s, but we had no reason to believe he would go anytime soon, and we didn’t receive notification of his passing until the next morning), he appeared to me in a dream and said goodbye (although without actual words). The thing that surprised me, and that I will never forget, is that my grandpa was clearly happy to be moving on. He was actually in kind of a hurry. I will never forget the quiet eagerness he displayed to move on to where he was going. It was a solemn moment, but he was clearly happy. I hope you don’t mind me mentioning this, but that dream actually changed my outlook about life after death, and let me know that Heaven is real, and that apparently the freed soul is eager to go on and get there ASAP.

I pray for your daughter’s peace, and for peace and strength for you and your family.

I am so very, very sorry, rfreedom4u. I will say prayers for you and your family during this most difficult and stressful time. I wish there were words of comfort that I could write that could give you some ease of your pain. IMHO, mental illness is a disease and THAT disease took away your daughter... no differently than a cancer or a horrible accident. You will see her again one day... and I truly believe that with my entire heart and soul. (((Hugs))) Mom

Praying with you and for you and your family, and for the repose of the soul of your daughter. Unite your sorrow with Christ, at the foot of the cross. That is where hope and peace will ultimately be found in this earthly tragedy.

Lord Jesus, rest the young girl Thy servant with the saints and comfort her grieving family.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
