A Prayer for Ben: Day 6: Sunday, 24/1/2010

I met Ben today. He is John’s nephew. Ben’s father (John’s brother-in-law) was brutally murdered in December as he was assaulted on his way home from work. The official mourning period is over, but the family still struggles to cope with their new reality. John’s sister now runs the family business while trying to raise her three children as a single mother. I could see Ben’s sadness on his face even as he played with his cousins George and Sarah.
Will you join me in keeping Ben and his family in your prayers and the many others in similar circumstances? May we reach out to them in the name of Christ as their brothers and sisters.
