Freeper prayer request for Ernest_at_the_Beach (Update: His wife has since passed away)
August 28, 2003

Posted on 08/28/2003 4:56:10 PM PDT by Ragtime Cowgirl

Dear Freeper prayer warriors, please keep Ernest_at_the_Beach and his wife in your prayers.

From Ernest_at_the_Beach | 08/28/2003:

Just to let you know that my wife (Kathy ) is now in her final days. Her pain in the last few months from the cancer was constant and unrelenting .

The last several months had been very difficult as she was unable to eat well and not able to eat at all for the last several weeks.

God will be merciful soon and relieve her of the misery of the dreaded disease!

Prayers would be appreciated!

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.

Please, Lord, comfort Ernest and family. Grant them strength and peace, and comfort them with the sure knowledge that this parting is only temporary. They will be reunited with Kathy forever, in loving embrace of our dear Savior, Jesus Christ.

My sincere condolences to you and your family, Ernest. May she rest in peace.

Safely Home

I am home in Heaven, dear ones;
Oh so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.

Did you wonder I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! but Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade.

And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on
Could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve so sorely
For I love you dearly still:
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's Will.

There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth---
You shall rest in Jesus' land.

When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!

You are in my prayers.

If Freepers could pray for Mannie and his son Phil and Melvin and his wife that would be great.

They will be in my prayers, also.

I am lifting it all up in Prayers for you Earnest.

"But please, please - won't you - can't you give me something that will cure Mother?" Up till then he had been looking at the Lion's great front feet and the huge claws on them; now, in his despair, he looked up at its face. What he saw surprised him as much as anything in his whole life. For the tawny face was bent down near his own and (wonder of wonders) great shining tears stood in the Lion's eyes. They were such big, bright tears compared with Digory's own that for a moment he felt as if the Lion must really be sorrier about his Mother than he was himself.

"My son, my son," said Aslan. "I know. Grief is great. Only you and I in this land know that yet. Let us be good to one another. ..."

I am sorry to hear of your loss.

Ernest, you know better than all of us the peace the flows when God reachs down and says "Enough, come home" and someone you love passes on to heaven. As the days reach out before you and your grief over missing this woman you partnered your life with begins to lesson and the best of memories come flooding in, try to remember that each of those most precious of memories is her movement in your heart.

I will ask our Father to bless you and your family and friends with overflowing peace as you walk thru this hurtful time. Our loving Father is in control, let Him take the reins from you. He will and He knows well the journey that you now pass into....we are with you here in this online community, too, lifting you and yours up with deep sympathy and understanding.

Burkeman1 and MS. Behavin, I will pray for you and those you have named.

Ernest apologizes in advance for perhaps not being able to answer everyone.

Ernest, no apoligies needed. Just know that your friends here are with you and praying for you. Kathy is safe and protected from pain now.
