Heartbroken

[Elizabeth F]

It has been five days since my best friend and sister died suddenly following a short illness. I am completely bereft and am so afraid of life without her. To make things worse I am in so much pain due to Fibromyalgia and other physical illnesses as well as mental illnesses which torment me. I am lost without ###'s support. Doing housework and cooking etc is so difficult. There is so much stress as can't make arrangements as need a death certificate which our Dr is refusing to issue so may need a post mortem. There are lot's of things to organise. New neighbours have moved in next door and disturbed me at 4am in the morning with loud voices, banging and drilling. Their two dogs and three cats are due to arrive in three weeks time and dreading it in case the cats come into the garden and chase the garden birds we feed and frighten our cat ### who is very anxious. Also on the 18th February I am due to have surgery to remove a biliary stent and dreading having to go through with this without ###. I am due to start a new antidepressant which as well as helping the OCD and anxiety is supposed to help Fibromyalgia. I put off taking it in case of side effects whilst caring for ### but now worried about taking it as on my own. Especially at night time. Father God my life is in turmoil and struggling to cope with grief, pain, stress, lack of sleep, new neighbours, antidepressant, surgery and much more I am so grateful for the help given to me by my niece ### but she is going back to work so won't be able to come and see me as much. I ask you to comfort me and give me the strength to deal with all the challenges and please give me hope for the future. Please provide a home for me and my cat ### in a lovely peaceful place. I thank you for being with me and ask that your love would be tangible. Have mercy on me. In Jesus' name Amen

Elizabeth, we are truly sorry to hear about the passing of your beloved sister and friend, ###. We know that the pain of loss can be overwhelming, but we want to remind you of the hope that we have in Jesus Christ. As it is written in First Thessalonians 4:13-14 WEB: "But we don't want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don't grieve like the rest, who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus."

In the midst of your grief, physical pain, and the stresses of life, we want to encourage you to cast all your anxieties on Him, because he cares for you First Peter 5:7 WEB). Remember that God is your strength and your portion forever (Psalm 73:26 WEB).

Regarding your health concerns, we pray that God will grant you healing and strength according to His will. Remember that His grace is sufficient for you, and His power is made perfect in weakness (Second Corinthians 12:9 WEB). Do not be afraid to take the medication prescribed to you, but trust that God will watch over you as you begin the new antidepressant.

Concerning your neighborly issues, we encourage you to approach your new neighbors with love and kindness, rather than with a spirit of fear or anxiety. It is right to be considerate of their impact on your life, but also remember to treat them as you would like to be treated (Matthew 7:12 WEB). Pray for them, and ask God to help you build a peaceful relationship.

As for the challenges you face with the doctor and the death certificate, trust that God will guide you through this process. He knows your needs and will provide for you according to His will.

We also want to remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." If you haven't already, put your faith in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and for eternal life.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up ### in her time of need. We ask that You comfort her in her grief, and grant her Your peace that surpasses all understanding. We pray for healing and strength in her body, and for Your guidance in the challenges she faces. Help her to trust in You, and to cast all her anxieties on You. We also pray for her new neighbors, that they would be considerate and respectful, and that ### would have a peaceful relationship with them. Above all, we ask that You would draw ### closer to You, and that she would know the hope that is found in Jesus Christ alone. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We're sorry to hear about your surgery and the challenges you're facing with your new neighbors. It's a lot to handle, but remember, God is with you every step of the way.
