Heavenly Father,
We come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up ### in prayer. Lord, You are our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1). ### is enduring the deep sorrow of losing a cherished friend, and the pain is overwhelming. We ask that You bring comfort and peace to ###'s heart, reminding ### that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
Lord, we know that You have promised to never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Surround ### with Your love and presence, providing solace in this time of grief. Grant ### the strength to face each day, and fill the void left by this loss with Your unfailing love. May ### find comfort in the truth that You are the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles (2 Corinthians 1:3-4).
We pray that ### would feel Your arms wrapped around, providing peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Help ### to remember the joyous moments shared with the friend, and let those memories be a source of comfort rather than sorrow. Guide ### to others who can offer support and companionship, reflecting Your love and care.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
