My heart is breaking this morning. For reasons I don't know I have come across several heartbreaking situations among friends, family, and even fellow bloggers. All I can do with this heaviness in my heart for their sorrow and battles is seek the Lord and search the Psalms. I can't even really come up with words to pray.
Would you please lift up a dear friend of my husband's who is at rock bottom in his life. So many unforunate things have happened to him in the past few years and yesterday he scraped bottom and attempted to take his own life. He got scared and called for help and is physically okay but inside he is broken and dying. He has two daughters who need him. Please pray for his salvation and redemption!
I read a new blog yesterday and one today where the ladies had both lost a baby late in pregnancy. I know the Lord gives us the strength we need when we need as we call out to HIM but I still cannot bear to imagine the pain their hearts must be filled with. Please pray for these bloggy friends of mine to heal!
Also, please pray for the family of my cousin who passed away a month or two ago leaving her two sons and husband behind. They are struggling and there are many things that need attention. Please pray they too find salvation and comfort!
Psalm 147:3-7
"He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names. Great is our LORD, and of great power: His understanding is infite. The LORD lifteth up the meek: He casteth the wicked down to the ground. Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God." |
