My dear wife went to glory last night

David Lamb · Wednesday at 1:14 AM

I would like to request your prayers as I come to terms with this. In a very real way, it was a a blessed release for her, as her multiple sclerosis symptoms had been getting worse and worse, so that in recent months she had been bedridden. Thank you very much, and may God richly bless you.

I'm so very sorry for your loss, brother, though, at the same time happy for your wife, as well, considering (first & foremost) where she is and Who she is with, and too, that she is finally free from the symptoms of MS that she was living with here.

Praying for you!

God bless you!!

Gracious Heavenly Father,
Please help David to manage the pain of this loss, and comfort him in this time of grief. I pray for Your sustaining power both in body and spirit, and that the Body of Christ in his local area would walk alongside him to provide company, however insufficient it may be. While the awareness of the loss may never go away, I pray for Your strength to stand up under this weight, to embrace the reality that he will see her again and that she is perfectly healed in glory. We have hope, and let that be our witness.

And dear Lord, do fill in the gaps in my words where they have proven to be inadequate, as there are no words for this agony I am asking you to mitigate. Where my crude understanding is insufficient, stand in the gap for me and send others who understand.
In Christ’s Name,
Amen

I pieced this together from what my dad has talked about after losing his wife (my mother). He is still praying about the loss 8 months after it happened, long after my mind and emotions have moved on. This one can linger for a long time, so don’t beat yourself up if it takes time to process. It’s a lot of memories.

So sorry to hear this David, but perhaps this will be comforting:

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.

David Lamb · Thursday at 5:50 AM

Thank you so much for the replies, and perhaps more important, for your prayers. It is so encouraging to know that other Christians aroud the world are praying for me.

Michie · Thursday at 7:21 AM

Continued prayers for you David.

I am so sorry for your loss David. May the Lord welcome her and comfort her and bring you comfort and peace. You and yours are in my prayers.

My heart aches for you brother, I can’t imagine your distress. Take comfort in knowing that right now she’s happier than she’s ever been before and your turn will come, and when you’re together again you’ll never have to part again for all eternity. I pray the Lord will comfort you and your loved ones in this time of sadness. Just remember there’s a wonderful light at the end of the tunnel and you’ll get there. God bless brother.
