Labor day picnic & ### passing away

[Dhitlor]

Our church is having a Labor Day picnic at someone's house tomorrow. My family usually doesn't do anything on Labor Day especially because my mother always perceived it as a day that people use as an excuse to drink alcohol and get in trouble (which some people do). We usually just stay home on that day. But I would have loved to attend and go. I like being around the people at church...I hope they like being around me. Please pray for ### about this that maybe we can go. Please for ### about grief over my sister's passing last year as I get hit with harder waves of grief at certain times and now is one of those times.

We understand the heaviness of your heart in this season, and we lift you up before the Lord with deep compassion and earnest prayer. First, we want to gently remind you that there is no greater name in which we can approach the Father than the name of Jesus Christ. It is by His name alone that we have access to the throne of grace, and it is through faith in Him that we find salvation and comfort in every trial. *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). We pray that if you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus, you would do so today, for He alone is the source of true peace and eternal hope.

Your desire to fellowship with your church family is a beautiful reflection of the unity Christ calls us to. The body of Christ is meant to gather, encourage one another, and build each other up in love (Hebrews 10:24-25). While we respect your mother’s concerns about the cultural associations with Labor Day, we encourage you to pray together as a family for wisdom and discernment. Not every gathering will reflect the world’s excesses, and this picnic is an opportunity to honor God through godly fellowship. *"Let us not forsake our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching"* (Hebrews 10:25, WEB). Perhaps this could be a chance to set an example of joyful, Christ-centered community. We pray that the Lord would soften your mother’s heart and give her peace about attending, that your family would be united in this decision, and that this time would be a blessing to all who gather.

We also grieve with you over the loss of your sister. Grief is a deep and often unpredictable journey, and it is okay to feel the weight of it, especially in seasons when memories resurface. Jesus Himself wept at the grave of Lazarus (John 11:35), showing us that sorrow is not a lack of faith but a reflection of love. Yet we do not grieve as those without hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13). Your sister is in the presence of the Lord if she knew Christ as her Savior, and one day, you will be reunited with her in eternity. Until then, we pray that the Lord would wrap you in His comfort, that He would send His Spirit to be your Comforter in these waves of sorrow, and that you would feel His nearness as you mourn. *"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted"* (Matthew 5:4, WEB). Cling to Him, for He is close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18).

Let us pray together for you now:

Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before You, asking that You would grant them wisdom and unity within their family regarding the church picnic. Lord, soften hearts and align their steps with Your will. May this gathering be a time of godly joy, fellowship, and encouragement for all who attend. Protect them from any influence that does not honor You, and let Your light shine brightly through them.

We also come before You with the deep sorrow they carry over the loss of their sister. Father, You are the God of all comfort, and we ask that You would draw near to them in this time of fresh grief. Remind them that You are holding their sister in Your arms, and that one day, there will be no more pain, no more tears, and no more separation for those who are in Christ. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and let them feel the love of their church family surrounding them.

Strengthen them, Lord, in body, mind, and spirit. Help them to cast all their cares upon You, for You care for them (1 Peter 5:7). May they find rest in Your presence and hope in Your promises. We ask all this in the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.

We're right there with you, friend. It's tough when family traditions and personal desires seem to pull in different directions. But remember, God is in the business of making a way where there seems to be none (Isaiah 43:19). Let's lift this up to Him together.

Lord, we come before You today, laying down our brother's and sister's desire to attend the Labor Day picnic. We know that their mother has concerns, and we ask that You would soften her heart and give her peace about this gathering. Help their family to come to a united decision, one that honors You and brings them closer together. We believe that You can turn even this into an opportunity for joyful, Christ-centered fellowship.

We also lift up the grief they're feeling over their sister's passing. Lord, You know the depth of their sorrow, and we ask that You would draw near to them in this time. Remind them of Your unfailing love and the promise of eternal life through faith in Jesus. Comfort them with Your peace, and let them feel the love and support of their church family.

Strengthen them, Lord, in body, mind, and spirit. Help them to cast their cares upon You, knowing that You care for them. Give them rest in Your presence and hope in Your promises.

We ask all this in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
