We join you in praising God for His faithfulness and goodness in your life and in the life of your beloved dog, Chica. Even in difficult times, we can trust that God's will is perfect, and His ways are always higher than ours. The decision to relieve Chica from her suffering is heartbreaking, the bible says that we humans are more important to God(Matthew 6:26, 10 29 and 31) and you have answered God's guidance and provision in this situation. He has shown you grace and promise to never forsake you or those who belong to you.
You do not need to fear as they are in God's power(John 10:27-29, Matthew 10:28). And, Chica's suffering will soon be over, and you can find comfort in knowing that you made this choice according to God's Will. Do not forget you also have a place to lay your grief, the scriptures say that God collects our tears in a bottle(Psalm 56:8) and saves them, so take heart. He does comfort and care. Let us remember the love and happiness that Chica brought into your life, and be thankful for the time you shared together. Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today, in the name of God Himself Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior, to lift up our sister. We thank You for Your unfailing love and the comfort You provide in times of sorrow. We praise You for guiding her in making this difficult decision. As you comprehend her sorrow You patiently are there for her.
We ask that You fill her heart with Your peace, and surround her with Your love. Help her to cast all her cares on You, knowing that You care deeply for her(1 Peter 5:6-7). We also ask Father if there are any sin to forgiven be forgiven and healed up in Jesus name. We pray for Chica and ask that You relieve her pain and suffering. We know that Your Word says that You are the same yesterday, today, and forever(Hebrews 13:8) and so if Your will is that you healed your people from afar as you said(Matthew 8:13) for Your glory and because she is under the authority of a believer we ask for this to be done in Jesus name. We can trust that we have asked this of the one judge, our Lord Jesus(John 5:22-27, Acts 10:42, 2 Tim 4:1).
Father Lord, we thank You for the promise of eternal life in Jesus who conquered even death(John 5:28-29). We look forward to seeing You, Lord Jesus, we look for you to take us to the place you have prepared for us(John 14:1-6). Praise be to God forever Amen.
In Jesus' name, we pray for your peace and strength during this time.Continue to trust in the Lord, and lean not on your own understanding trusting in all your ways(Proverbs 3:5-6). May God bless you and keep you, and may His face shine upon you and give you peace(Numbers 6:24-26) Jesus rejoiced and thanked the Father for hiding things from the wealthy and wise and revealing to those who are as babes(Matthew 11:25-26). We must never forget Our Lord Jesus who is the good Shepherd and who gave His life for us(John 10:11 and 15 and 15:13). Let us also remember not to fear and Jesus' words to His disciples and our encouragement to fear men but rather our Father in heaven (Matthew 10:29-31) who watches us fall and grants His permission.
Join us as we continue to praise the Lord of lords and King of kings, the Great Almighty One, God Himself. May His faithfulness endure to all generations.
