The not knowing.
The empty chair at the table.
The obvious absence of our precious loved one.
A pain impossible to walk through.
And we can't without leaning on Him.
Remember, as hard as it is for us, it's unbearable for our Loved Ones. The distance. The separation. The alienation.
Yes, they can numb it, but when they wake up day after day in the same oppression, they feel restless and afraid and remorseful and dejected. And they don't know how to get out of that cycle.
Today I pray the giver of peace fills each of us with overflowing peace as we listen for that quite voice that says “I love you.”
July 29, 2024 Our prayer for our Loved One today:
John 14:27 "I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.”
Father God, you are the Prince of Peace. And you came to bring us the perfect peace that can only come from you. Lord, thank you for leaving us that gift. Peace of mind and heart. And I pray today that [our Loved One] would experience that gift in some small way. Through a touch, a smile, a sense that comes onto [him/her]. Lord, I pray that today [he/she] would look for that gift in You and not in anything the world can give [him/her]. And Lord, I pray that you would take any troubles, fear or anxiety and lift it from [our Loved One] today so that [he/she] can be completely filled to overflowing with Your peace!
