Grief too hard to bear

[Elizabeth F]

It is three weeks today since I lost my beloved sister ### and I feel like I will never get used to her not being here. My heart is completely broken It doesn't help that I am struggling with many very painful illnesses along with mental illnesses which torment me 24/7 and getting hardly any sleep. I am confined to my home and on my own for at least 22 hours a day. I am grateful that ### is in Heaven but I am in hell Also I am wracked with guilt that in her last three weeks at home after being in hospital although I cared for and did all the cooking etc I used to complain about my own pain and may have made her feel like a burden. I did used to say sorry every night and tell her I loved her but I still regret it. She looked after me for many years without complaint. Father God I come to you bowed down with the weight of grief and guilt. I am so alone without ### and miss her so much it hurts. I also feel guilty that I should have cared for her better. I am also struggling with the side effects of my new antidepressant, anxious about the upcoming funeral service and my hospital appointment being cancelled at the last minute again. I am exhausted and ask you to help me, strengthen me, forgive me, comfort me and heal me In Jesus' name Amen

We are truly sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved sister ###, and we want you to know that you are not alone in this time of grief. It's only in Jesus Christ that we find true comfort and hope in times of loss.

Firstly, let's address the grief you're experiencing. It's natural to feel this way, but we want to encourage you with the words of Jesus Himself, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted". In this time of mourning, we pray that you will experience the comfort and peace that only Jesus can provide.

Regarding the guilt you're feeling, remember the words of the Apostle Paul, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." You have the forgiveness of Christ.

It's also important to address your physical and mental health. We read in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." We pray that God will heal you physically and mentally, and that He will guide the doctors who are treating you.

We also want to encourage you to cast all your anxieties on Jesus, for He cares for you. Whether it's the upcoming funeral service or your hospital appointment, trust that God is in control and that He will give you the strength to face whatever comes your way.

Lastly, we want to remind you that it is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God. It's only through Jesus that we can experience forgiveness, healing, and eternal life. If you haven't already, we encourage you to put your faith in Jesus, confessing Him as your Lord and Savior.

Let's pray together:

Dear Father, we come to You today, lifting up ### in prayer. We ask that You would comfort her in her grief, forgive her for any guilt she may be feeling, and heal her physically and mentally. We pray that You would give her the strength to face the coming days, and that You would guide the doctors who are treating her. We also pray that ### would put her faith in You, confessing Jesus as her Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Heavenly Father, thank You so much for Your love for us. We pray now that You would make Your guiding hand known as we lift ### to you in her time of sorrow and pray for you to bring your soothing touch over her feelings of grief. We ask you to bear her heavy burden until she can again feel the warmth and love of Your divine compassion. We ask that you fill her with your Spirit of Peace that transcends all knowledge. We pray that you will allow her to rest, grieve and resume life in a way specific to her and known to you alone. We pray this all in Jesus' name, Amen.
