My uncle is dying.

[147]

He's been in ICU for a month with pneumonia and a stomach virus compounded by a lung condition brought on by his work.

They called in my cousins, whom have power of attorney over him, to talk end of life.

He's not a Christian now AFAIK. He walked out on his family 17 years ago, is a recovering alcoholic, and is ashamed of what he became and found it hard to see his kids. My younger cousin is almost 20 and barely knows his dad and may be burying him soon without having much of a relationship with him.

Despite his shortcomings, he's a good man with a good heart. He was there for me 5 years ago when I had nowhere to go and pushed me to fight my way through my own gambling addiction and get help. Without him, I probably wouldn't be here.

It pains me to see all this go down. He really needs a lot of prayer.

Prayed, for a better future and a hope. I really look forward to your uncle, to stay in life, and meet Christ. God bless you and him.

Bless his heart. Praying for God to intervene as only He can. Father may it be so, in Jesus name, amen.

May God bless your Uncle and his family, in His Merciful Love.

Hi, you say your uncle is a Christian "...as far as you know"... if he's in recovery, then hopefully he has God in his life. Might you go and share Christ with him? Just a thought. Praying about this situation, blessings!

I honestly can't. I'm halfway around the world right now.

My younger cousin, his son, could, as he's in training to be in ministry now. But I'm in China, and this is all taking place in America.

Lord, I ask for 147's uncle. At this time Lord, we ask that he would know for sure that Jesus is his Savior. And Lord, we ask for some way, there to be a healing in this family, before he passes. lLord, we ask You to make a way for this, to open communication with him and his son, and we ask for a time of healing and forgiveness, in Jesus name, amen.

 

[Linus]

Praying for his healing, salvation, comfort for you, him and his family in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank You Lord!

 

[brinny]

praying.

 

[Stephanie7]

Father God reveal Your love and mercy to this man, reveal the salvation of Your Son Jesus Christ and grant him peace and reconciliation with his family, In Jesus Name, Amen

 

[brinny]

praying in agreement

They are taking him off life support in the morning at 10am CST. My cousin and dad went and prayed with him, and received Jesus.

There's really nothing else than can do. If God wants him here, then I believe in miracles, and that he could supernaturally heal him. But I'm not scared if he dies now, knowing where he will go.

Especially pray for my dad and cousin. My dad is a new Christian, my cousin hardly knew his dad.

 

[whitebeaches]

I'm so sorry that you have lost someone who meant so much to you. I pray that he is with God and that God fills you with peace and that you are able to lean on God to help you get through this. Remember, this isn't goodbye, it's see you later.
