Dear God,
It’s been years since I last talked to you, probably since I was a child, and I kind of feel like an hypocrite for doing it again until now. My ex boyfriend just died. He, unlike me, was very close to you. That’s why I find his death so hard to understand. He was 24 and a faithful christian, and religion was the reason we ultimately broke up.
He never questioned your existence and I envy him for that, because I know that at the time of his death he felt comfort for knowing he was going to a better place.I pray for that to be true. I pray for him to be in a better place, a place where he can be reunited someday with his family he left behind. I don’t know if I will see him there, because if there is a heaven, I don’t know if I will be admitted. I pray to you, his God to give him peace, to give his family the strength to go through this, and maybe help me have a little faith in something, so when my time to go comes I can feel comfort too.

gabriela,
first off, don’t worry about the hypocrite thing, god doesn’t. next, realize that death here is not the end. i pray that the god who created everything would reveal himself to you. that you would see him for who he really is, not what someone said he’s like. and that you would find the peace that you are looking for, to completely envelope you.
peace.

Mark 9:24 ” Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, ‘Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!’ “.

Your ex boyfriend is partying it up in Heaven, and I’m sure He is very thankful his death is causing you to think about who he lived his life for. Praying for you.
