Prayer Circles

I lost my son to murder. He was the center of almost all of our families activities, It was the darkness in anothers heart that took him away. I cried out for help, and found it in my Lords Grace. His son came and gave his life so that mine will live again. He is all that I lean on. I pray for strength every day and it has been eleven years. Thank you for the prayer circle. Soon I will have to rehear about his death at a parole hearing . I will take my faith and his comfort will hold me once again.

My daughter Angelle Marie went home to God last year she was only 20 months old.. We miss her dearly and pray that we can survive the worst possible thing that can happen to a family

Dear God, help Shane's family know that love is never, ever lost. Shane is in You and You are in us all. Grant them the peace that passes understanding when their grief closes in. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

I was told my child would not live past two.He is 37 but leads the life of a two year old.I feel I lost him at two,my heart and prayers go out to all of you who are suffering at this time from the death or loss of your child no matter how old.God Bless.

Mother2aboy, knadd, I'm so sorry for your loss, I pray that God gives you the spiritual strength to get through this,
plasticity, thank you so much for your prayer, it's most appreciated and heartfelt,
barossa gal, God gave you a very special child, and picked you to be his mother, God Bless you.

fiffi9- I was almost in tears when I read about the death of your son. I am 15 years old so I don't know what is like to be a mother, but I do know that God understands how you feel so much that he feels what you feel and he is carrying you through this.

There is nothing I can say that hasn't been said, but I just want to say that my heart breaks at the thought of what a parent who loses a child must go through & I sincerely wish that no one should have to live through such a nightmare>>>Dear Lord, please give extra strength & guidance to these parents & bring the peace of your love to them, let them know that their children are in a much better place & are being cared for until their parents join them. God bless you all!

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your children. Please accept my prayers for your healing. I am so sad and my heart is full of sadness for all of you.

I lost my daughter on 12/18/99 in a car accident. She died one year to the day of my father's death. Tuesday would have been her 20th birthday. I know the pain and sorrow you feel. If it wasn't for my faith, my family, and my friends I don't know how I could go on. She was my friend and I miss her dearly but I am greatful God let me care for her for the 18 years she was with us. I would rather feel the pain I feel now than to not have the memories she left us. My prayers go out to all who have lost a child.

I lost my daughter Lisa in car accident that I was driving. We were comming back from church when I lost control of the car and was broad sided by a young man I used to babysit for when I was young.Lisa was 8 yrs old.I was not saved then, so it was very hard to accept.But out of this loss came life, my husband got saved first then I came to know to the Lord. I just want to let all those who have suffered a loss of a child Jesus knows and He is there for you, just let Him in. My love for all of you goes out to you and please don't give up the faith.

Thank you all for posting on this page, sharing our grief and praying for each other is the best tool we could ever have. Ivtseka, I agree with you wholeheartedly, I would not change anything for the 24 years that my son was in my/our life. God Bless you all, and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Shaner you have done a nice job by establishing this circle.May Allah rest souls of all these children in peace and give strength to their parents to bear this loss? Patience! easy to say difficult to attain. May Allah help us all.

Thank you for your kind words and visiting this Circle, taxofficer2001, may God/Allah help us all on our journey of grief over losing one of our children!

I lost my eighteen year old son, DUSTIN May 11, 1999. He was 6ft, 175 pounds, played ice hockey and was very healthy. I came home from work and found him in his bed. He was gone. The devastation seems to never leave. Two different autopsy's showed that he had an acute broncial asthmatic attack. Strange thing is, he never had asthema. How and why is my son gone? I am having an extremely hard time with belief now. My heart goes out to parents who have lost a child. There will always be an empty place in my heart that DUSTIN filled. People may see a smile on my face at times, but inside are always the thoughts and the pain of loosing my child, my son, my life......

Dear D2pak! life is a trust of death.We have to live for others.We have to smile for others.Deep lying pain is for soul.
Allah is saviour of us all.Allah hafiz.
My e-mail address to share your sorrows is taxofficer@37.com

D2pak, my heart goes out to you. You experienced the exact same thing as we did, one minute our son was alive, the next dead from an aneurysm. I used to ask myself the same thing - how could he be gone, he was just here! And yes, a part of your heart, your very being goes with that child, and you're forever changed. I don't have the hard answers for you, I only leaned heavily on Our Heavenly Father and still continue to do so and pray a lot. It's coming up to our 2nd Anniversary of my son's death next week, and I too put the 'mask' on, for the benefit of other people, but I miss him as much today as the day he died. We will always carry this loss with us, but in time it will get a bit easier. My only advice is to pray, talk to your son, and talk about him to others. Reach out if you need help.
God be with you,
Luv Sandy

My best friend lost her mother and daughter to a car accident recently. We were very close to this child and my daughter still suffers nightmares and just being lonely. But the saddest part is watching my friend in her time of grief.. She has very little family left and just not sure where to turn.. So I keep all of the parents in this group in my prayers, because I know now from experience that you can't even begin to understand what a parent has to deal with when they lose a child, until you have seen it first hand, once again my prayers and thoughts are with you and your families!

Thank you stephendepend for posting here and your kind thoughts and prayers. I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your friend's daughter, she needs the support and prayers of friends like you right now, that is the best gift you can give her.

my heart breaks as i read about all the lost kids. i had just lost a son of 16 years old on 6/6/2000. he drowned in a river..an before that within a yr lost a mother to lung cancer.and a nefew to a car train wreack.it all seams so unfair and it so hard. i cannot see beyond the grief right now and i know i have to go on because i have to girls to take care of but i just wonder all the time as to why it happen .my heart feels to be breakeing all the time as is someone stomped all over it,, when i find myself trying to get into every day life i feel guilty, because my son was took and i am still here.until i found this site tonight i really didnt no there so many other to care and pray for other people all over the world.i think you for me finding you and plan to keep reading this site..god bless each and everone of you.

rhonda34, I'm so very sorry for your loss of your son and other family members. I know it all seems unfair and so hard, but you have to remember that you are still in grief. Experts say that it really doesn't 'hit' a mother or father until the 2nd year of their child's passing, then we start to realize it is final. So you may be experiencing that right now, along with the grief over your other loved ones. And feeling guilt is very normal. So don't be too hard on yourself. This Thursday marks the 2nd Anniversary of our son's passing. And it's quite true, we now know that it's final, he's gone. I'm glad that Our Heavenly Father directed you to this site, you can see you're not alone, and you have your two girls to take care of and carry on. But if you feel like having a good cry, go right ahead, it will help. And don't forget to pray, we found that when the pain became too bad, we turned it over to God, and He got us through some very dark days. God Bless you,
Luv Sandy

I lost my son Luke, 3 years ago this month. Out of this loss I have been blessed with finding a way to appreciate what God teaches us. God allowed me to spend 16 wonderful years with my son. It was a stark lesson in taking the time to smell the roses. I am a much better Dad now. I know how precious time with my loved ones is. I know they know how much I love them. Amd my loss has served as a constant reminder to keep God in my heart. These lessons are the goodness I was allowed to draw from Luke's passing. I pray that you too can find new blessings that God reveals after your loss.
May God bless you so-----Bob

Bob, very sorry to hear of your loss of your beloved son. Your words of encouragement are very welcome here and very true. We all come out of this experience changed people, and it always seems to be for the better. God Bless you,
Luv Sandy

I prayer for all the parents who has lost a child,my sister bonnie has lost her son,andI pray that her pain will easy.

I am truly sorry to hear of the many losses many of you have recently experienced and while I have never personally lost a child, I have lost realatives and friends who were dear to me.
Being a person that believes that the opposite of birth is life not death.....that life never ends, it merely changes, I offer you all this prayer.

Father Sky and Mother Earth,
All things must pas away ; Journey forth.

This life you have so graciously given,
now returns to your embrace beyond the veil.

May the Powers and the Winds of Air carry your spirit gently home.

May the Powers and the Flames of Fire illuminate your path.

May the Powers and the Purity of Water cleanse you of pain, sorrow and suffering.

May the Powers and Abundance of the Earth Mother receive you.

May the Wheel turn and bring you forth to rebirth.

As it is above ; so it is below.
So it shall be.
