I miss my grandmother so much. She raised me to know God/Jesus. She was my backbone, The only person here on earth who accepted me and understood. No one understands me, I feel like I'm invisible. I feel empty. I feel lost. Life has been hard for me lately. I almost can't take it anymore. God knows I've been strong and I pray until I'm blue in the face. I have no where to go; spiritually speaking, I feel like I have no purpose. My mind feels like it's going crazy. I have all these unwanted and perverse imaginations that I do not want there. The only person keeping me alive is Jesus; I am holding on to that little hope. No one understands how much pain I'm harboring. I can't even pretend to me happy anymore, it's impossible. All I want is peace, a peaceful mind, but even that seems hard to receive because I'm always worried or struggling with something. I'm even failing school because of my worries and my confusions. I'm literally lost. I have never felt so lost and alone. I feel like there just clouds all over me and I'm seeking for the light. I need prayer. I need strength, I need a miracle. I do not want anyone feeling the way I do. NOT ANYONE. Jesus please save me.


Ps. My Grandmother passed in March of this year. :/

You certainly picked an appropriate user name: Peacebestill. The Lord says that to me in my heart quite often if I start to stress at all. "Peace, be still."

I am a grandmother and I know the close bond a child can have with their grandparents. I'm so sorry for your great loss. My heart hurts for you and tears stream down my face for your burden of grief. How very sad the void now.

Praise God you will see your beloved grandmother again in glory (Hallelujah!!) but for now, you have this immense grief to deal with. That is such a heavy thing. My heart and thoughts go out to you, dear daughter of God. I weep for you, too.

Lord, this young precious sister needs to be lifted up and encouraged. I know you blessed her with a special grandmother, a blessed woman who truly loved and nurtured Peacebestill's heart and mind. Let her begin to practice what her grandmother taught her so she can grow in grace and continue in her grandmother's steps, continue her heritage of lovingkindness and wisdom.

Lord, we thank You for blessing this sister with such a lovely, devoted woman of God as her beloved grandmother. Strengthen and nurture our sister Peacebestill and Holy Spirit, speak to her plainly and clearly and let her walk delivered of confusion and despondency. May she begin to heal and continue to grow as the godly, gifted woman You created her to be for Your great purposes. In Jesus' name we pray!

Lord, Thank You that You gave her this grandmother to be in her life to understand her. Now that she has gone onto You, I pray You would give peacebestill lots of friends around her that understand her also. I pray You would let Your ultimate understanding be known...the way You love her just the way You created her to be. Give her a supernatural peace by Your Holy Spirit and a joy that surpasses the worldly joy. Help her to know everything will work out and You are watching over her. In Christ's Name, Amen.

Oh precious one, I know all to well what you are going through. I, too, have lost someone dear to me. I know it hurts. But you know, these types of things come only to make us stronger in God. I know that's hard to hear right now. But it's true. Go ahead on and cry. Have a good cry and I will cry, too. But please don't let this consume your life. God left you hear without your grandmother, for a good reason. You are now going to have to take over in someone else's life, just like she did in yours, darling. I know you may not want to hear this, but you are going to have to continue to be strong. It's tough. I know. But if you stop now, you may never know, what God has in store for you or the people you come in contact with. This was such a beautiful, heart felt story and you know what? You have touched me with this story and I bet there is someone else out there who needs to hear your story and know your heart.

I won't go into a long sermon about holding on, but just know this: we are all here for you and whenever you need to talk, we are here to listen.:)

Dear Lord, touch this dear one and give her the peace, understanding and strength she needs to continue on in Your name, amen.

Peacebestill, my cat died recently and my heart is crushed with grief missing her, at first I was inconsolable, cannot even imagine how you feel for parting from your beloved grandmother...
I pray you are fully comforted in Jesus and may He speak over your spirit:
Psalms 51:8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. amen
Try to read Psalms aloud, it makes demons flee... at least it helps me.
Sending love and hugs your way...

(I would appreciate if you guys reading this mention me in your prayers too)

Sister peacebestill I can understand your feeling and emotion.I lost my 90 year old mother 2 months ago. As I am 38 years in the Lord my hope is Jesus in me, will use his words through me to not only comfort( 2 cor 1:4-9) you,but give you great hope in your future.( rom 15:13)

Rev 14:13 says And i heard a voice from heaven, saying, Write Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord( your grandmother,as well as my mom sis) from NOW ON!! YES says the Spirit so that they may rest from their labors for there deeds follow with them." They also follow we us sis,as our memory of them is always memories of there kindness towards us,there gentleness,yes sister there very love!

It is upon these memories we now have of them forever,that they would desire us to carry out there wonderful gifts and promises they attained through our Jesus,and with our Jesus in our mind, and inside our Spirit to grant us great comfort and security, so that we in turn my give that which we have through our Jesus to another who so needs it.

Like in these times sis. Do not fear or be afraid sister,( john 14:1-4!!!)Jesus loves you greater, then all who have ever loved you,and we his children share his love to you,so that you may become a partaker of that same love,to grant to others who have gone through, or are going through the same trials and temptations.

May our Jesus always find you,and always find you most well in him! For you are not just a person sis,you are his child,to which he loved you so much he shed his blood just to call you his own!! Take great comfort in this sister, i sure do!( psalm 27:13!!) Everyday and in every way,Jesus gives us his goodness,so that we in him, can give this to another!! Blessing to you sister!

Thank you so much and I receive all of your kind words into my heart at this moment. May Jesus fill us both with comfort, love, and life. Thank you for taking time out of your day to write me such lovely thoughtful words. May God bless you and keep you in his peace forever, Amen.
