I just got a call from my sister. My nephew, Travis, shot himself and is on life-support. He's not expected to live. Details are sketchy at this point.
I'm calling on all FR prayer warriors to send their prayers Heavenward.
Can you please ping the prayer warriors??
Thank you...

Dear Lord we ask as a gathering of Your adopted to watch over this young man.
"His place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be
given him; his waters shall be sure."
- Isaiah 33:16
Do you doubt, O Christian, do you doubt as to whether God will fulfil his
promise? Shall the munitions of rock be carried by storm? Shall the
storehouses of heaven fail? Do you think that your heavenly Father, though
he knoweth that you have need of food and raiment, will yet forget you?
When not a sparrow falls to the ground without your Father, and the very
hairs of your head are all numbered, will you mistrust and doubt him?
Perhaps your affliction will continue upon you till you dare to trust your
God, and then it shall end. Full many there be who have been tried and
sore vexed till at last they have been driven in sheer desperation to
exercise faith in God, and the moment of their faith has been the instant
of their deliverance; they have seen whether God would keep his promise or
not. Oh, I pray you, doubt him no longer! Please not Satan, and vex not
yourself by indulging any more those hard thoughts of God. Think it not a
light matter to doubt Jehovah. Remember, it is a sin; and not a little sin
either, but in the highest degree criminal. The angels never doubted him,
nor the devils either: we alone, out of all the beings that God has
fashioned, dishonour him by unbelief, and tarnish his honour by mistrust.
Shame upon us for this! Our God does not deserve to be so basely
suspected; in our past life we have proved him to be true and faithful to
his word, and with so many instances of his love and of his kindness as we
have received, and are daily receiving, at his hands, it is base and
inexcusable that we suffer a doubt to sojourn within our heart.
May we henceforth wage constant war against doubts of our God-enemies to
our peace and to his honour; and with an unstaggering faith believe that
what he has promised he will also perform.
"Lord, I believe, help thou mine unbelief.
"

Dear Lord Embrace Travis in your Grace and Love and please give his family strength at this very difficult time.Thank You Lord Amen.
What a sad tragedy! May God comfort his family, forgive his sins and receive him in His arms!
I am so sorry...prayers going out!
Lord, Your perfect will be done in this critical situation. Please apply Your healing virtue as You see fit. And grant peace and comfort to all.
My prayers are for Our Lords comfort for your family. May he wrap his arms around all of you and give you peace
Add my prayers to the rest. May God bring His peace to this situation.
Prayer on the way for Travis, and your entire family. Truly sad.
