I failed to give you a life that would flourish. I still don’t know why, and I never will. It all went so terribly wrong. I am so sorry, my beloved, precious daughter. One of my teachers used to say, “That’s just the way the cookie crumbles.” It rings so hollow and yet that’s the answer to all my unanswerable questions: that’s just the way the cookie crumbles. Dear Lord, There are moments in her life when she faces challenges that leave her feeling weak and weary. In those times, I turn to your word and claim the promise found in Isaiah 40:31. Dear Jesus, we weep with you over the number of our kids who are buying into the lie that sexual pleasure is something to experiment with. We pray that our daughters would treasure their sexuality as a true gift from You, and that they would honor that gift by saving it as a precious treasure to give their future spouse. We ask that you would help them to be strong in the face of their own desires and that they would choose purity in the face of temptation. In the name of Jesus, I offer this prayer for my beloved daughter. Amen." Prayer for My Daughter to Know Her Worth Dear Lord, I know that Your Word does not return void and I'm believing great things for my daughter today:

More was deeply pious. He recognized the abuses of the Catholic church, but he believed it could reform itself from within. He could not accept spiritual reformation via secular power. As a young man, he had been torn between a career in the church and a career in law. Though he had chosen the latter, he never lost his passion for theology. We could have a party to commemorate your birthday, but you wouldn't be there to enjoy the festivities. I want you to know that you are forever loved and carried in my heart. When my father passed away, I was 13 years old. It happened suddenly and tragically, one week before a class trip to New York City and my middle school graduation. I was not given any time to grieve. Two years later, my aunt also passed away suddenly. I was left with so many unanswered whys. William Palmer’s poems are accessible, but not obviously courting attention. Clarity and conciseness inform their rhythm, imagery and structure. Not quite a formalist, Palmer seems the kind of poet who carries a traditional sense of cadence in his head, while being able to make the lines sing in modern, unpretentious and not too rigidly metrical English.May she find comfort in Your ability, God, to reach her, hold her and rescue her ( 2 Samuel 22:17-18). After resigning the chancellorship, More retired to his family home. He attempted to live modestly and quietly, hoping to be left alone. But he was too famous and respected to be forgotten. Henry VIII knew that his controversial reformation would be far more credible if men such as More accepted it. As the premier intellectual in England, More’s opinion was too important to remain his own. Yesterday Kim’s mama made us gather around and listen for over an hour how her daughter graduated college with honors although she had mononucleosis for two semesters.

If you believe your daughter is in Heaven, you don’t need to stop organizing birthday parties for her after she has passed on. You can still plan a celebration of life event that serves as an alternative to a traditional birthday party. This type of celebration could potentially help you and others focus on joyful emotions rather than dwelling on feelings of grief. 26. Visit her favorite places Yet that’s how we feel. We rest peacefully in the knowledge that you’ll join us someday and that is where our solace resides. Stating that a daughter “never ceases to be miraculous” suggests that even after her death a daughter can still touch the hearts of those who knew her. 12. “The universe took its time on you, crafted you to offer the world something different from everyone else” by Rupi Kaur I searched for many things to fill myself up. Many were bad things, but some were good. I had good friends who helped and distracted me. I had the rest of my family too who gave me love. I had pets and cats to console me and give me company. Pets you had loved too. The cats looked for you, I saw them searching, but they could never find you. I understood their sadness and confusion.

But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."

I expect you to live truthfully; to face your imperfections head-on; to be real and authentic in your relationships. I expect you to call home. Spread your wings, take the world head on and be the strong, independent woman you were born to be but never feel alone in this world. You will always have me, you will always be my baby and you will always have a home.

I’m Not Ready for Life Without My Mom

I come before you with a heavy heart, filled with concern for my precious daughter who is experiencing pain and depression. Lord, you know the depths of her struggles and the burdens she carries. I lift her up to you, asking for your healing touch and comfort to envelop her. Bring relief to her pain, both physical and emotional, and grant her the strength to face each day. I cried so many tears I lost myself as that young teen girl. When I looked I couldn’t find myself so I wrote down my agony. The loss of you brought me to writing. It was my counselor, my friend, and my dumping pad. I had to get it all out and writing it down was the only way that worked. When I talked to others about my emptiness they just didn’t get it. They hadn’t gone through what I had gone through. They would judge me even if they didn’t mean to. I could always see it in their eyes. They either felt bad for me and their eyes welled up with pity or they just didn’t know what to say. They were so consumed by the pity that no real help came forth. I don’t even know what would have helped. Probably nothing. My world fell apart when you died.
