God blesses those who mourn. He will see that they are comforted. When Jesus found out John the baptist was killed he went off to a quiet place to mourn and the Father not only comforted him, but empowered him. Immediately after what must have been a deeply emotional prayer were Jesus probably cried his eyes out and poured out his sorrow over the loss of a very special friend and co-worker, and he cried out this loss directly to the Father, immediately after Jesus' deeply emotional prayer he performed several of his most amazing miracles: feeds the five thousand, walks on water, defeats the Pharisees in oped discussion and feeds the four thousand. This amazing power Jesus welded immediately after opening his heart to the Father in the state of full mourning over the loss of his dear friend John was no coincidence. When we are in a state of mourning our heart becomes full of grief and sorrow, but when we open it wide to God in private prayer a corridor opens between us and God. God can reach down through that corridor, comfort you, consul you and give you the power to carry on. As a brother in Christ to Colleen my wife and I offer our sincere condolences. I will be at the CCC each Sunday now Colleen and I hope to see you there soon. My prayers are with you each day in your loss. - Posted by: Roger Herbert (Part of Colleen's faith community at CCC ) on: Jan 31, 2014

Please allow the grief to do its work in their hearts and assure them of Your Presence, as well as give them strength to face the days ahead. We pray for people to surround them who will weep when they weep and rejoice when they rejoice. Precious Lord: We also believe that you will give them Hope in the Glorious Resurrection to come, through Your SON, "Jesus Christ." In Your most Holy Name: AMEN."" - Posted by: Mr & Mrs. William & Jenny Dyer/Mackay (Church friends from CrossRoads Community Church) on: Jan 27, 2014
