God, Author and Finisher of our faith, there are times when we are so tempted to cry out for the happy ending of the story! There are times when we are so enveloped by the sadness and brokenness of this world that we can nearly forget that You made the universe for good! In sorrow we lift up the extended family of @LightBe777 , where there has lately been so much loss and sorrow. We imagine them crying out with Job, "Oh, for the days when I was in my prime, when God’s intimate friendship blessed my house, when the Almighty was still with me and my children were around me, when my path was drenched with cream and the rock poured out for me streams of olive oil. " The sorrow is real and deep, and we feel it with this family. We appeal to Yeshua to reach out with the hand of wholeness and touch this entire family. We pray that You will wipe away their tears and clear their vision to see the blessings You have in store for them. In this time particularly, we ask You to wrap Your loving arms around them and give them peace, comfort and rest. We turn our hopes to Yeshua's words, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." We pray in the Name of the One who is, indeed , our Comforter--Jesus Christ. Amen.
