Good morning, God.
I pray for the Bryants this morning. I don't understand death, but I believe that you have defeated it. I believe that you have placed it squarely beneath your foot and crushed its power in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But it tries its best to exert control over us, and it still has the power to break hearts, to cause tears, to elicit pain. It may be only a shadow, but the darkness of death seems to loom strongly whenever it draws near. Be with the Bryants, Lord, and grant them the strength, peace and assurance that only your presence can give. Cover them in grace, that they may know you are near, and that Bill has passed through the shadow and into the fullness of life in Christ. May their pain and sorrow be matched by your great love, and may you strengthen the church to surround them with strength when they need it.
Amen
