Prayers Needed.
« on: May 13, 2004, 12:31:39 PM »
I have been a friend and family of this board for some time now and would like to ask for some prayers!

Last night, a really good friend of ours (34 years old) was shot and killed by her ex-husband, then he shot himself, committing suicide. The divorce was going to be final tomorrow. She has no brothers or sister! The thing that really gets me mad and breaks my heart is that there are 2 young kids involved. (5 & 7 year old). The kids are staying at our house until things get situated with custody to the grandparents.

It just breaks my heart that these 2 young kids have to deal with their dad killing their mom, than killing himself, for the rest of their lives.

Like I said, I am sorry to post this here, but we just hope that everyone could think of these 2 kids in there prayers.


God Bless Everyone!

That's a really sad situation Jon. Seems neither parent thought much about the kids but only themselves. All too common these days it seems. We have a "Prayer Posse" forum up in the Cowboy Action Section that is just for this kind of request. I'd suggest posting it their also for additional prayer support.

God bless the children.
God will intervene through the works of Christian people.
I wish the best for you and the children through this tragedy.

I have a 7 year old and it makes me just sick to think of his feelings should anything happen to me and my wife.

God Bless those children and if donating a toy or something would help to take their minds off of it, please let me know.

Jon,

May the Good Lord above provide strength to those young children, and may He Bless you for asking others for His Prayers.
