Death in the Family

I'm sorry to bring you all down with this out-of-character post, but I need to ask you for a favor.

I just found out 5 minutes ago that my brother-in-law has died unexpectedly. He has a wife and three small children. Please pray for his family, if you are so inclined.

I'm not sure what the next few days will hold. I may not be around much for a few days. Rest assured I will get around to responding to your reading list suggestions soon.

Thanks for your prayers and support.

-Rob

Dear Heavenly Father,
We come to you asking a serious thing. We ask you to be with Rob's family, not only the spouse and kids, but Rob as he helps.
We pray for your guidance, love, and compassion.
We pray for protection from depression.
We ask this..not that we can be of any significance, but that your name will receive honor and glory.

I'm so sad for you and four family. May God's children wrap their arms around all of you and bring you comfort and love.
I discovered your blog today via crummychurchsigns and I think you owe no one an apology for sharing your need. Weep with those who weep and laugh with those who laugh! (kqv)

Diesel, I am so sorry to hear this awful news. You, your sister, her kids, and your whole family are in my thoughts and prayers. I lost my father very suddenly in 1997, so if anyone needs to talk, I'm here.

I, too, am so very sorry to hear this news. My heart goes out to your family, especially his wife and kids. What a hard, hard thing to go through. Please know that some silly girl in Idaho cares and is sending love and hugs to everyone in California.
