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 have always believed there is nothing worse than losing a child, regardless of the circumstances. I cannot imagine the pain, the emptiness, the torment. It is beyond my comprehension.
My heart breaks for you. You are not alone in this grief. Many will hold you close in their thoughts and prayers, myself among them.
I wish you peace.
TC

I ask that you reach out to the Lord and ask him to comfort you and your family. I will add my prayers for you and your family as well. The pain of losing a child is unbearable at times and as a parent who lost a Son at the age of 20, just try to focus on getting through each day. What has helped me and my family is knowing that we will see my Son again one day.

God is merciful to the sick. Jehovah God will restore what has been stolen.
I pray in the Name of Jesus The Christ for you and your family’s healing and comfort.

Prayers for you and your family.

My platitudes certainly won't provide comfort - but I sincerely pray that the Good Lord applies His hand of comfort and peace. It is a sin-cursed world, stained with tears, but draw to the Rock that can't be shook. He is the only one who can calm the storm by His Word: Peace, be still. He alone knows the end from the beginning, and we trust in Him.

This is the most difficult thing I can imagine a parent going through.

My heartfelt prayers are with you and your wife, at this difficult time. My heart is aching, knowing the range of emotions you both must be experiencing. Please know that FRiends are here to listen, understand and pray.

Praying for His peace...and strength....and, in time, His comfort.

I am so so sorry you have to go through this. The fog is normal and will come and go. Do not entertain any blame. She chose it and you love her anyway. Do not go there on assessing it further. Just love your wife and everyone else affected by it and let them love you back. We live in a fallen world and that means bad things happen and bad choices are made. It is always best to leave blame in the hands of the one who did it, even as you sympathize and love and miss them. Don’t let yourself wallow in figuring it out. There is no figuring it out. Just focus on what you can do — love the other hurting people around you and let them love you back.
