Lord Jesus, I lift
up to You members of families experiencing the passing of a loved one. Please
comfort each of them at this difficult time. Please calm their anxieties and
give them Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Lord Jesus, I thank You
that You will never leave or forsake them, that You are with them always to
uphold them with Your righteous right hand. Help them to know that though the
loved one is not with them in the body, the loved one will live on in their
memories. Help them to replace grief with the fond memories that they have, so
that they can find comfort and joy in these memories. Thank You, Lord Jesus,
for answering this prayer.
To You, Lord
Jesus, be the glory, power, majesty and dominion both now and forever.
Amen.
