I built a friendship with an elder person, another member on here. It was a friendship that last 10 years until his went home to Jesus this weekend. I never met the member. I don’t want to say which member.

I am deaf. I don’t have other friends. I spend most of my time alone in my offline life. He was my only close friend. He was someone who I emailed everyday for 10 years. I always look forward to his email. He was my mentor. He always guided my hands toward Jesus. He always told me the truth about the Bible and events that took place around the world. He always proofread my college papers. I shared with him about my life and whatever I was going through. I always asked questions about the Bible. I don’t want to replace him. I still need someone to guide my hands to Jesus. I want to add new friends to my life even if I may never meet the new friends.

That's a wonderful story and I am happy that you found someone to communicate with on a regular basis. I am sorry to hear about the loss of such a treasured friend too.
I will pray for you and that you find another friend just as nice. Also I pray for the family of the member that died.

I am very, very sorry for your loss. You were very Blessed to have such a good friend. You are not spiritual deaf, another blessing, from the Lord.
I add my prayers for you to find devoted friends that lead and support you as you journey through life with Jesus as your Faithful Companion.

I am hearing impaired and it is very easy to isolate. It is very sad to loose a friend... I know, I've lost plenty... and my oldest friend was 102 when he passed 5 years ago October.... Being here online is safe, and there are many who can guide you... be sure to ask a chaplain for help as you seek a new friend or friends.

Father comfort and guide, we ask.

Praying to Jesus and our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary today for you KS; don't forget to pray for your friend's soul as he enters the 'real life eternally' with our Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour, offer up God's Holy Word readings for his soul, any little sacrifices as you pray to Jesus The Our Father's and Hail Mary's to our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary for his soul eternally.

Remember Jesus is our best friend and always there to pray, talk and communicate receiving Him into our hearts. Our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary is always there and listens to any one speaking Her Holy Name, praying to Jesus and Herself, calling out to Her through our Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour while praying The Our Father's and Hail Mary's.

Enjoy your memories of this person and thank Jesus for all of His Blessings that He gifted you over the years while asking Jesus in trust to send along a person/soul who is just as loving, kind and good.

Kindest wishes your Sister in Jesus Christ our Saviour

Thank you for the prayers and support. I really miss this friend a lot. It is a blessing that I met this member through this website.

A few days ago, I placed all the cards that I received from my friend in a plastic box (5" in height). The box is filled to the top with cards that I received from this friend. Later this week, I will look around my bedroom for any cards from the friend that I might have missed. I always look forward to getting mails from this friend.
