We pray for comfort, strength, and healing for those who mourn his loss, knowing that You are the ultimate source of peace and solace in times of grief.
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." - Psalm 34:18
We ask for Your presence to be felt deeply by those who are grieving, surrounding them with Your love and comfort as they navigate through this season of loss. May they find solace in the knowledge that Mike is now in Your eternal care, free from pain and suffering, and that one day they will be reunited in Your heavenly kingdom.
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." - Matthew 5:4
Grant them the strength to lean on You for support, to find peace in the midst of sorrow, and to trust in Your perfect plan even when it is difficult to understand. May Your light shine through their darkness, bringing hope and healing to their hearts.
"The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace." - Psalm 29:11
We pray for the memories of Mike to be a source of comfort and joy, and for his legacy to live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. May his life be a testament to Your grace and mercy, and may his loved ones find peace in knowing that he is now in Your eternal presence.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
