Father,
In the incredibly Sweet and Precious Name of Jesus I come with a burdened heart. I do not feel like praying tonight, and I am always a little embarrassed in posting a public prayer in writing. There are others more eloquent and expressive.
But, my heart will not let me off the hook. Long ago you blessed me with an awesome and incredible friend, who I have grown to love and admire and feel very close to.
Now, my friend, who is so very far away, and who I cannot kneel in prayer with, is hurting and needs support. All I can do is lift her to You in obedience to Your command to love one another and to pray for one another and to bear one anothers burdens.
And so, Father, I ask You now to look on my heart and forgive and remove anything there that would hinder this prayer.
I thank You, tonight for the life of this Precious Lady, who has given birth not only to my friend, but to some wonderful Children of Yours, and her brothers and sisters.
I thank You Father that You have saved her and have reserved for her an eternal home in Heaven where she will know far more love than she has known here, even.
I know Father that You have told us in Your written Word, that the death of a Saint, like this one, is Precious in Your sight. And I thank You for the rejoicing that will be in Heaven when she comes home.
And Father, How I thank You and praise You, not only for the command to love and pray for one another, but for the awesome privlilge of lifting out hearts to you in sweet asurance that You hear and will answer our prayer, for which we give You thanks and glory and honor now.
Father, visit Alta and her family at this time. Wrap Your loving arms around them and fill them with Your love and Peace that passes all understanding. Give them Father, Your strength, and Grace to see them through this hour.
When time comes for this funeral, may the tears be of great Joy, and may this be a, get down, glory hallelujah, sing and shout and dance and praise the Lord, Home going celebration of victory in Jesus!
Father I thank You for this privilege and I thank You for the positive answer to my hearts desire, and I thank You for my friend, and I Love You Father and I love my friend, and I thank You for this Love and Joy and Peace.
You are an Awesome and Great God worthy of ALL praise and Glory and Honor both now and forever, and we lift that to You through Love itself, our Saviour and Lord, Jesus. Thank You and Thank You, and Thank You and praise You forever, Amen!
