a prayer for guidance
Most high, glorious God, enlighten the darkness of my heart and grant me, Lord, a correct faith, a certain hope, a perfect charity, sense and knowledge, so that I may carry out, Your holy and true command.
a prayer journal of sorts
This evening my husband's nephew passed away. Joshua was the 4th of 6 children, and would have been 5 years old later on this month. He was behind a vehicle playing and when they went to pull out didn't see him. He was taken to the ER where they worked on him for over an hour but were unable to save him. Please keep the family in your prayers, especially his poor mother. I am heartbroken and I can only imagine how she is feeling right now. I know that they would appreciate any prayers you can offer, and it will help carry them through this terrible time.+Lord, where do I begin? You call the children to Yourself, it is true. Still, a loss like this is so hard. How we wish to have him with us too! Love Him, Lord, and look kindly on him. He was so young and innocent. Comfort His mother with the knowledge of Joshua's presence in her life always. Let her understand how perfectly Joshua can love and praise you now. Hold his family on earth close to You, Lord, and heal them. Lord, I know not what to say...
