from the This Is the New Testament reading plan


Daniel 7:14

BY She Reads Truth

Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.

He was given dominion
and glory and a kingdom,
so that those of every people,
nation, and language
should serve him.
His dominion is an everlasting dominion
that will not pass away,
and his kingdom is one
that will not be destroyed.
—Daniel 7:14

    What a tragic event for your nephew’s family and especially his wife. The very same thing happened to me 3 years ago when my husband decided to take his own life at age 60 and there was nothing I could do prevent it. It all happened so fast. My husband was a believer and could not get past the mental illness that he had been suffering from. I will be praying fervently for your nephew’s family and the pain they will endure in the coming days. I can tell you that the love of Jesus, family members, and dear friends was and is still amazing. The Lord truly sustains us during the worst of times.

    GramsieSue I have been thinking of you and your family and praying for you all since yesterday. My heart is heavy thinking of the pain you all must be going through. I will continue to pray.

    I thank all of you so so much for your prayers. I have felt them throughout yesterday, last night, and again this morning. After hearing all the details and finding out that my nephew has been talking about suicide for months, my heart breaks that he didn’t get the help he really needed. This is a sad end to a troubled life. Do pray for his wife as she was right there and couldn’t prevent it. The funeral won’t be u til next weekend because they have to wait on an autopsy. I love all of you sisters. Praying for your needs as well. ❤️

      Praying that the peace of God will guard your heart and mind, and the same for your nephews wife, as you grieve. Praying for a redemption story to come from all of this. My deepest heartfelt condolences, GramsieSue.

    HE is our everlasting God! There is NO end to HIM!
    I trust HIM. Prayers are appreciated as I watch my college-aged son navigate through life. I am often reminded I need to take a step back and just let him do it. I don’t want to nag! And sometimes it’s hard to watch.
    But there are times when I reminded him “gently“. And when he’s frustrated I take a deep breath, come alongside him, and be there for him. Yesterday after a frustration he called me into his room wanting his mother to pray for him. So I did. I didn’t nag. I didn’t say I told you so. I just prayed over him.. I’m asking my SRT sisters to please pray his FASFA and other aids will be there for him as he goes back to online school in about a week.

    Today is my best friend’s husband’s 70th birthday, & he is in the last days of life here on earth after a 15 year battle with cancer. We were able to travel to see him and say our goodbyes, but continue to pray for his peaceful passing at home. He is at peace & ready to move to his eternal home. So thankful for our shared faith in our eternal Father & Lord! Praying too for his wife & son, providing his care with hospice support.

      Praying alongside you Nancy. So glad that you can be there for your best friend. I love that God gives us these beautiful friendships.

    Thanks to everyone for your prayers. We’re heading out now & I’m taking your prayers with me.
    TruthReader I have added your request to my prayers. I grew up traveling back and forth across country as part of a Navy family. Thank you and your family for your service.
    Hugs wrapped in love & prayers for a a great weekend of rest for all y’all.

      Have FUN PamC. My kids and I were in Santa Cruz last weekend. You’re going to love the beach. Praying that you can sustain the trip. If you have to, ask the driver to pull over so you can stretch a little.
