A Prayer for Ravon

Dear heavenly Father God,

     We gather together in prayer for Ravon's family at this time.  Ravon lost his dad recently as you know.  And because he didn't have insurance when he died, Ravon and his family are having trouble raising the money to cover the funeral expenses.  We ask that You will meet this need for them.  We pray that You lift this burden off their shoulders.  This season in life can be so devastating to people, Lord.  And they need Your help, God.  We pray that You will help them heal from the loss of Ravon's dad, and that You will turn their hearts toward You as they seek peace and comfort through this tragedy.  We trust that You will meet this financial need of theirs so that they may bury their dad with the respect and dignity due him.  Above all, Lord Jesus, we ask that You will grant Your peace and comfort to the hearts of the grieving.  Help console them during this time and let them not turn to destructive substances or behaviors for comfort.  We thank You, Jesus for allowing us the privilege of coming to You, and speaking with You in this way.  And we love You, oh Lord our God.

Amen
