Prayer Of A Mother Who Lost Her Son

Heavenly Father, I kneel before You grieved in my spirit and with deep pain in my heart, due to the loss of my son, whom I loved so dearly and who has been taken from me so cruelly.

Father I know that he is in Your presence now, but I have been left with a gaping hole in my life that is hard to express and impossible to explain.. and yet I know that You grieved over the death of Your dearly beloved Son, Who gave His life as a ransom for others so that we might believe in Him and be given life everlasting – and in my heart I know that there is no-one who understand the loss of a son like You and there is no one who can comfort the heart of those that are grieving more than our heavenly Father – for  You are the God of all comforts, Who comforts us in all our afflictions and pain.

Lord I know that there are others also who are going through this same, deep sadness and loss of their sons too,  and I want to lift each and every one up to You and pray that You would comfort every mother and father who has had to go through the devastating loss of their son. 

Thank You that Your grace and pity is beyond our understanding and that Your peace can calm each aching heart and still the troubled mind of all who are grieving.. and we pray that in a wonderful way You would meet the needs of each one at this time of loss, and draw them into a closer walk with Yourself - this I ask in the name of  Your own, dearly beloved Son – Jesus Christ my Lord,

Amen
