Prayer Request for WTC Victim
Me | 9/26/01 | TheRightGuy

Posted on 09/26/2001 5:30:38 PM PDT by TheRightGuy

I have been trying to get in touch with, and just received this email from, a close friend (would-be FReeper) and former co-worker:

I have been very busy with my family these last two weeks. We lost my cousin Billy in the WTC terror. He worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 104th floor. He has a 3 year old daughter, Katie, and his wife is due with their son on October 3rd. My Dad (who is a mess) went with my Aunt Bertha and Uncle Bill to New Jersey on the 11th when it all happened. They did locate his body and we now have him home but have to wait for the funeral until after Mary has the baby and can travel. I have been spending all available time with my aunt and uncle in Plainfield trying to help out as much as I can. Peter (Billy's brother) is in New Jersey helping Mary with paperwork, handling insurance, paying bills, setting up a trust, etc. This has just been a nightmare and I don't see it ending. My aunt and uncle are not doing well and I am beginning to wonder if they will make it through all of this. Enough for now -

Heartfelt prayers for your cousin's family, Right Guy. And prayers for Mary - that she can be strong during the upcoming days. So many heartbreaking stories, it just isn't fair!

Prayer on the way for your entire family. I'm an October baby, so I'll say a special one for the new little one.

God bless one and all.

Prayers have already been said for Dawn K and her family, especially grandma and grandpa. Please remind them for me that even though this may seem too much to bear, GOD IS IN CONTROL.

"...comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do."--I Thessalonians 5

"The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken."--Proverbs 3

God bless you. Prayers will be continuing.

Heavenly Father, please hear our prayers for Mary, for Billy's parents and children, and for Dawn. Surely You know the grief and sorrow they feel over their tremendous loss. Comfort them through the power of the Holy Spirit, and bring them through this dark hour. Help them to feel the peace of Your loving arms surrounding them. Take care of all the legal work that they must endure. Send them wonderful friends and angels to help them through the despair. Draw them to You and be their strength. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

When the Sons of God appear, just point them to His grave, and the family will be whole again. This is going to happen much sooner than people think, and it will be AWESOME! In the meantime, we will pray for their souls to be comforted until we all sit down reunited in His Kingdom.

Anything satan can do, God can undo. And the last days is when the Almighty God who likes to undo evil will do His glorious work. Pray and watch, because you will soon see things on this earth that Hollywood could not dream up in their wildest imagination!!!

I can only say what I know in my heart.

God loves all of us. Dear Lord, please keep Billy and his family, especially his nearly due wife in your hands.
