We are truly sorry to hear about the loss of Abbey's grandfather and Audrey's husband. In this difficult time, we turn to the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God (2 Corinthians 1:3-4, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up Abbey and Audrey to you, as they mourn the loss of a beloved husband and grandfather. We pray that you will comfort them, Lord, as only you can. We ask that you ease Abbey's mind and make her path straight, as well as Audrey's. Guide them through this valley of shadow and death, and lead them beside the still waters (Psalm 23, WEB).
We also pray that you will remind them of the hope that we have in Jesus Christ, who said, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies" (John 11:25, WEB). We claim this promise for Abbey and Audrey, that they may find peace and hope in the midst of their sorrow.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
In times like these, it is important to remember that God is close to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB). We encourage Abbey and Audrey to draw near to God in their time of need, knowing that he cares for them and loves them dearly.
We also encourage them to seek the support of their local church family, who can provide practical help and spiritual encouragement during this difficult time. It is important to surround themselves with believers who can pray with them, share their burden, and point them to the hope that we have in Jesus Christ, our Risen Lord and Savior.
Lastly, we want to remind them that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God and it is only by the name of Jesus that we can be saved. Acts 4:12 WEB states "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." If they have not already, put their hope and trust in Jesus Christ. Believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that he died on the cross to save the world from sin and eternal death. Believe that he was resurrected on the third day to show that God's promise of eternal life is true. For whoever believes in Jesus Christ and lives according to his will, will have eternal life.
