Prayer for a friend...

Please join me in prayer for a friend who lost her husband this past weekend. He died suddenly in his sleep due to a staph infection that he didn't even know he had. He went to bed Saturday night with what he thought was a toothache and he didn't wake up Sunday morning. My friend Rebecca has four children ages 8 to 1 MONTH old! She needs lots of prayers this week and for a long time to come. I am praying specifically that she will find an overwhelming sense of God's presence in this situation. I am also praying for the older children... that they too would know and feel the love of Jesus during this time of missing their daddy and seeing their mommy mourn him.

Hug your husbands and children lots today!

Wow...that is heartbreaking indeed...and words just don't suffice! I will pray for them all to feel his arms wrapped tightly around them through this time of disbelief and for the journey they are about to embark on called grief...and life without a loved one.
