Title: Prayers for my sister Post by: DovesWings on May 01, 2004, 12:56:08 PM Hi all...
I would just like to ask for prayers for my sister...her husband passed last Sunday morning. He was 36, she is 31. They are spreading his ashes today. Please also keep his family and friends in prayer. It's been hard all around. Thanks so much and God bless...

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." matt 5:4 The good thing to know is her husband is in heaven. Title: Re:Prayers for my sister Post by: DovesWings on May 03, 2004, 07:11:48 PM Amen Felix, and thank you :)

Was the husband's death sudden, and is he saved?

Was the husband's death sudden, and is he saved? Thank you :) Yes...his death was sudden, he committed suicide...we're waiting on the autopsy reports. I know he believed in God, but he was angry w/ Him b/c of his father's, brother's, step brother's and friends deaths. I talked to him a bit about our Lord and Saviour and how we just had to accept Jesus...I'm hoping he did do that...can't and don't know what was in his heart between himself and our Lord when all this happened. I pray to God that he DID indeed, but I just can't say for sure. Title: Re:Prayers for my sister Post by: Im a Mormon on May 12, 2004, 06:03:15 PM Praying for your sister and her extended family!! It is so sad when someone feels that life is so 'horrible' that they must kill themself! My mom knows a lady whose Son-In-Law attempted suicide on Mother's Day!! He hanged himself in his living room!! His wife and 6 y/o daughter found him hanging, and the mom cut the rope and he was STILL ALIVE!!! I don't know if he is alright at this point, but VERY SAD!!!
