Faith Builders

Today’s meme asks us to post a prayer for this family on your blog. Pray for their future, and for the understanding in the purpose of all of this.

Heavenly Father, I thank you that we can come before your throne with our “why’s” and lack of comprehension and you hold us and comfort us. Father thank you for taking us just as we are, broken, downtrodden, and weeping.

Father I bring Cannon’s family before you. I know Cannon is with you right now, and for that I celebrate his lack of pain and suffering. You knew the plan for Cannon’s life before he was born, you knew how things would play out. We may not know or even understand your purpose for Cannon’s life, but even in the blog world I see how many lives he has already touched. Father I pray for Carla. I am not a mother who has walked the road she is walking, but you know all her fears, hurts and anger. Wrap her like a warm blanket and carry her through this most difficult time. Be with Carla, help her to find the life you have planned for her. Let them lean on each other, and you holding them both up.

Father I know this is an imperfect world, with so much pain. But I thank you for your presence, I thank you that you will walk with them every step of the way. Thank you that I have the privilege to pray for this family in their time of need.

Amen.
