Comfort for the grieving....
Please join me in lifting up the family of an 18 year old young man who was hit by a car while changing his tire along side the road. Not certain of His beliefs. Or that of his family. He was always happy and always smiling. He seemed to notice everyone and touch their lives by bringing them a smile. He was well known in the community.
Also for a church member who passed away yesterday. He had heart surgery and was "feeling better than he has in a year." Then left church and had a heart attack and passed away. He leaves behind a wife and adult children. He was good friends with my pastor who is taking this very hard. He was with him when he died. Please lift up this pastor as well. This man was very active in our church. The prodigal son of sorts so when God got ahold of him, he was really on fire for Christ. No doubt where he is. Just hard to go from praising God for this man being able to be in church Sunday to him being gone. It must of been Gods will.
Also Mary who buried her husband on this past week. We always see her and her husband on the road every Sunday as she is driving to one church and us another. Yesterday we passed by on the road going to church and it was sad to see just her in the vehicle. She's strong to continue to get out and attend church despite her grief.

Yes Lord, We stand with Sister Pine, in all her intentions for all those she has mentioned.
We pray for the peace of their souls and may they know your joy, that which is beyond understanding.
In Jesus name, hear our prayers.
Amen
