Father, please touch this family and circle of friends with your merciful touch. We all find it so hard to understand when someone so young is taken so abruptly from this plane of existence. Please help us to accept that even though we do not understand that there is a purpose for everything that you allow. Father bind up their hearts with your love and comfort them in this time of grief. Blessed are those that mourn...so says your word and we know that it is true. Please Father bless this family and circle of friends. In Jesus name...Amen!
