- Dear Lord, please give Mommy the strength to lead our family forward through this tragedy. We know you are with us and that you love us, even when we can’t see you.

- Lord, you know the holes in our hearts and the dark clouds that hover over our heads. We come to you today in a desperate state without any hope of solace. We struggle to find strength within us to go on in this hostile world, as we’ve lost everything. Our children were our priceless treasures, but now they are gone from this dark earth, and we are left with our broken hearts showing through the tears upon our faces.
- I admit I have never lost a child, but I have seen your pain. We know you are hurting. I, too, have felt that emptiness in my heart when you get the phone call saying, “Mom, dad, they’re gone.” You find yourself running on adrenaline, not eating, sleeping, or thinking straight. The emptiness is so great it takes over your whole body, making you feel like a prisoner in your skin.
- Dear magnificent Lord, thank you for this new day. Thank you for the sun in the sky, the flowers that bloom and deliver their fragrances into our homes, and the blessings you have given to us. Thank you for all of your prayers. You have brought so many cheers and joy into our life, and we pray that it continues. Lord, please bring peace to those suffering; give them the courage to face their new lives.
- I didn’t even know your son, but I was his friend in passing. I watched him persevere through college and into the world. Now he is gone, and you are doing so much to bring awareness to this disease. Keep up the excellent work, and I know your son would be proud!
- God, I thank you for this gift of life. Today is one day closer to when we will be with you. Take comfort in knowing that we are working all things together for the good of those who love. We trust that you have allowed this for some purpose that will ultimately bring glory to yourself in the time of trials.
- Good morning my dearest son. May God grant you peace and comfort this day. We are deeply sorry for your loss. Our hearts go out to you, as we know the sadness you must be feeling inside. There is nothing great we can do or say to take away the hurt–no words will take away the pain. The feelings of emptiness and hopelessness that have overcome you are real, but please know that these feelings will fade with time.
- This is a prayer for you, for your strength, and for God’s will to be done. Today I pray that you have peace and comfort like never before. I pray that if your heart just soars as with the winged dove, you will feel His love surround you all over again, filling your heart and soul.
- Heavenly Father, the pain of losing my son, is too much to bear. I miss him so much that sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy. Please help me cope strong with this tragedy and give me strength. I am comforted to know that you love me and will watch over my son until we can be together again. Thank you, heavenly father.
- Dear good Lord, Thank you for the gift of my children. Thank you for these years we have had with them and how they continue to bless our lives. Forgive us, Lord, for those times we were short-sighted, impatient, or unkind in any way. I pray that blessings will still be given to us as we grieve their loss. Help us remember the good times and not only the heartache at their passing.
- God, please watch over {insert friend’s name} and their family during this difficult time. Please help them to find peace in their hearts so that they may mourn {insert name}’s passing with comfort and ease. Thank you for your love, mercy, and kindness. We are forever grateful.
- Good morning! How are you? I hope my letter finds you well. I wanted to write you both a heartfelt note to let you know how much I appreciated your recent calls. Your cool kindness and prayers are very much appreciated, but please don’t feel the need to keep calling me or stop by the house.
- Loving Father in Heaven, your son bestowed three gifts on all of us: love, joy, and peace. Today we ask for the gift of patience to allow our mind, body, and heart to heal from the inside out. Help us feel our broken hearts move smaller as they become accustomed to living in this new painful reality. Show us how and when we can help others suffering in our community. Help us look forward as we work through each hour of each day.
- Dear God, I love my family. I am grateful for their love and the time I’ve had with them. When I lost my son, I was sure that life would never be the same again. I know that you understand my pain and suffering because you are always there when times are tough. My faith is strong; great hope is alive. MY GOD IS THERE!
- Lord, I pray for the parents of all those who lost their lives. I know you are working behind the scenes and using this situation to impact many others. May you help each parent find peace in knowing their child is with you right now. Lead them in your path and give them comfort for as long as they need it. Please raise them and use them for your glory.
- I see you’re suffering, and I will always be here for you to help. Let your children know that they have all my love and will always protect them. Hold them close and let them know they are deeply loved and cherished, that they can always count on me.
- We held you softly in our arms when you were born and thanked God for a beautiful baby boy. When you smiled at us, all our dreams had come true, but within a few short years, you slipped out of our grasp, you slowly grew up and became a teenager, then all at once, you were an adult with your own life.
- God is our refuge, strength, and comfort. Even amid deep grief, He holds you in His arms, takes away your sadness, and restores your hope. He will do this if you ask Him by day or in the stillness of the night. Psalm 46:1 says God is our protection and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. God alone is all you need to make it through another day.
- Dear Lord, this prayer is for any grieving parent who might be reading this. Strength and divine peace be with you during this difficult time. Come to my child’s grave and see it covered in dandelions. Despite all that bad has happened, there are still signs of life, of hope. The dandelions are there, asking you not to give up on life. They are a tiny sign that there are still joyful moments to be had, ones free of tears and pain.
- Dear parents, we are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our baby. We feel like we have been torn apart by what happened, and our hearts have been ripped out with the passing away of our little girl. I’m so sorry for your loss; my thoughts and prayers go out to you. I hope this little prayer of mine will bring you some comfort.
- I don’t know where to start, so I will begin by saying thank you. You are parents who are loved, respected by most, and admired by many. Nobody can ever take away your pain, nor should they even try. Every day is a struggle, and every day you fight, but no one knows how hard you are trying because they never ask. I pray that Almighty God gives you the great strength to get through each day and that he keeps your children in his arms.
- Thank you, God, for this new day. My husband is still gone and suddenly so far away, but you are here with me and guiding me through to another day. Help me be strong, help my son remember his father, help us understand and forgive. I love thank you!
- I’m so sorry. I know it’s super hard right now, but I just wanted to let you know how much my family and I love and care about you. We pray for your family every day. Stay strong, and the Lord will send help. God Bless.
- Dear Lord, you have a beautiful plan for each of us. I beg you to please help me. Please let me know where he is and allow me to see his smile again. I miss him so much. Take care of my baby. Watch over him now that he is away from us. Give him the strength he needs to push through the hard times. He is my only child, and I love him so much! I pray this in your Holy name, Amen.
- We share our grief and loss with a grateful heart and tender feeling, appreciate you for being there for us, for your thoughts, prayers, and tears, love you all.
- We pray for comfort for the parents, wisdom for the siblings, and strength for the rest of the family. God’s grace is sufficient for you.
- God bless us, everyone; God bless us all. Thank you for this wonderful time, for the gift of life and the gift of love. I pray the coming year is one of the new beginnings, sharing and loving through laughter, tears, and compassion. God bless our family.
- Lord, we are struggling to find meaning in our loss. We have not yet come to the place where we can turn our faith loose with joy through our tears. Guide us toward healing and hope, knowing that your love is deep and wide, firm and unchanging, enough for all our sorrows.
- Good morning. As a parent, you were praying for your safe return from the depths of despair and grief. In honor of the lives you share, lives you’ve already shared, and the lives you want to share with others. That your cheering hearts will be filled with gratitude for having known and loved them, even as you honor their sometimes short but loving and beautiful lives.
- Morning has dawned, the skies are bright and blue, a perfect day to remind you how much we care. How much we think of you and miss your smile. Thoughts are coming our way, please know you’re in our hearts each day, and we hope that somehow you can feel the love surrounding you. We expect the love around us can somehow give you some strength and comfort when nothing else seems to help.
- Dear God, please help Diane and Don through this challenging time. Their hearts are broken from losing their son Jon. Please comfort them, sustain them and give them strength. Show them a sign of your love and care for them in this challenging time. Comfort all who loved Jon during this time of sorrow. Lord, thank you for the super divine gift of life given to each child who leaves this earth far too soon but leaves a memory that will live on forever.
- It’s not how much you raised them, and it’s how much they raised you. You never forget that unique little smile or laugh, and a part of your heart will always belong to your child. That little face can instantly change your mood from anger to affection with just a glance from those beautiful eyes. It might have been years since they left this world, but many things remain the same.
- Dear Lord, forgive us for our sins and for the ways we have gone about living as humans. We have put our evil, selfish desires first and have forgotten to love; done horrible things, and failed to say I am sorry. We are just not the all-powerful beings we think we are and we do not deserve your kindness or protection, but as your children, You still give us these gifts.
- Dear God, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you. Thank you for the gift of life and my mom and dad. They are such beautiful people and have a genuine love for each other. I will never stop loving them or you. But I need your help right now. So many horrible things have happened that it’s hard to process them all at once.
- How I long for your presence; You are in my thoughts and prayers, my friend, every day. I love you!
- Dear Lord, I have come to you in prayer in the wake of another devastating loss. Give me strength, dear Lord. The tears I’ve shed outnumber the number of kisses my daughter received as a child. How much more must I suffer through before I am allowed to enter paradise? Or is this my punishment for crimes against others that I have yet to make right? Do you remember me saying that you will be done? I no longer wish for this to happen. Lord, forgive and restore great peace and joy to my life.
- My sweetheart son, I say to you today: Protect me with your wings of love. Look at my heart and be aware that I feel the pain, too. I know how down it feels to lose a cheering and dear loved one, a son, or a father. Open up your heart and let down your guard tonight. Let go of sadness and pain just for this evening. Perhaps, when you strongly get up in the morning, you’ll feel refreshed and full of life again.
- Dear God, I pray for my parent’s strength to endure this tragic loss. I pray that they will find divine peace and comfort in your love. Father, I turn to you with my deepest fears. Help me understand the pain they must be facing now. I ask that you help me accept their decision to comfort them in a time of crisis. You reign forever and ever, and it is in your name that I pray, Amen.
- Dear God, we come to you today in a time of great sorrow. As parents, it is our responsibility and honor to protect, love, and raise our children happy and prosperous. We now find ourselves in the low and unthinkable position of emptying our bank accounts, saving every penny we can to bury our beloved daughter. It’s not fair that she left us before we were ready to let her go.
- Our children’s lives were cut short, but we are grateful that God chose us to be their parents. Please reveal to us the purpose of this tragic accident. We miss our children terribly and feel your loss every day. To keep them in our hearts and bring meaning to their death, we will serve you and others in need.
- God bless you both with comfort and strength as you grieve. May His love fill your hearts and give you hope. Having lost a son myself, I pray that God sends an angel to watch over and protect your beautiful boy. I will be praying for you daily!
