Shivala lost her battle with depression today and has decided she could no longer take the pain. She leaves behind 2 children, an ex-husband, 4 siblings and 5 nieces. This is my sister's family. My sister died in 1992 at 39 from breast cancer, leaving behind Shivala and her 4 siblings.
Shivala's brother lost his 39 year old wife 2 years ago from a heart attack after covid vax, leaving their four girls to be raised by my nephew who was in the Navy at the time. They have certainly had their struggles and my heart breaks for all they have gone through. They are not believers, but I pray that through these trials they might meet Jesus, the way, the truth and the life.
Thank you all very much...I know the power of prayer...and the power of the GAW community when you all agree in prayer...God bless you all and be sure to hug your families extra tight and tell them you love them...we are not promised tomorrow...thank you 💔
Let me share something beautiful Shivala posted on Facebook as a thank you for your loving support of Shivala's family...my family...
TEACH
The trees teach me how to let things go
The rivers teach me to go with the flow
The sky teaches me it's okay to cry
Each night the moon shows me how to say goodbye
To the sun, who shows me how to shine
And the stars that teach me I am divine

God, please make Your way into this family, even if it’s through this tragedy so they may know Your peace and love. In Jesus’ name we ask for this. Amen.
And Amen...
Amen. My heart breaks for those children.
Mine too...
Get those kids, including cousins, into grief therapy, even if you have to bribe them. Our local hospice organization sponsored weekly groups comprised of children their own age. The kids were allowed to speak freely about what they were going through. I sent my son after his sister died and credit this experience with saving his life. Suicide is a copy cat business. Prayers are with you all.
There's a book written by a Baltimore newswoman detailing her husband's suicide and how her son committed suicide two years after when he was breaking up with a girl friend. She spoke with our compassionate friends group. Learned a lot.
God be with you all. He's the only way through this pain and this mess.
I know...I agree 100%...the problem is I have no influence and they live across country...I know you shared your loss and pain in one of our first encounters... counseling is so essential. Me and my remaining sister have done it. I will try to get that book and share...life is so often hard and painful...but you are so right that God is the answer to the pain and mess...thank you so much for sharing...and the book suggestion...I hope I can find the author...God bless you richly for your caring compassion and words of wisdom...much love to you and yours friend...
Maybe this will open up some honest discussion about suicide...it seems to be on the upswing...people are losing hope and the will to keep living with pain and sorrow...
I will look too.
❤️
It's Susan White-Bowden. Her books are on Amazon. Consider yourself hugged.
Grateful...sounds like a worthy gift to share...the family are all readers...
Oh, don't ever give up. After years of constant prayer and terror, my son was touched by God and gave up booze. Married a wonderful woman, and just this summer he and his kids were baptized.
Mine, too.
Yes, thank you for asking us to unite our prayers for the intentions of this extended family. O, Lord your praise is ever on our lips, so tonight we request a powerful sign in the lives of these grieving individuals. We thank you, trust and love how you will bring good out of such hard circumstances. All praise and all thanksgiving be every moment thine!
Beautiful...God bless you loving praise to our Lord...

Father God, we lift Your Precious Children to You who are suffering this devastating loss. Please open their eyes, hearts, minds and spirits to Your Complete and Total Love for them. Guide their paths and help them find Your Perfect Healing. Thank You in Advance Father and pray these things in Your Precious Name...Amen! 🙏🙌
Thank you...pain and suffering are real and sometimes unbearable...I mourn that she could not overcome...she was a beautiful soul who thought and felt deeply...death is a permanent solution to temporary problems...yet sometimes the pain seems permanent...it is easy to relate...tragic is the word...
Yes... utterly tragic..💔
Praying for you all friend! 🙏
Lord God Almighty I bring this family to You. You are the Great healer and desire that we all have a peaceful wonderful life. I pray for 2 children, an ex-husband, 4 siblings and 5 nieces I plead the Blood of Jesus over their minds so that the enemy will not come in and destroy their thoughts as they grieve but protect them and the ones they love. If they do not know You Jesus bring them to the knowledge of the truth and remove the scales from there eyes so they can see You for who You are and reach out to You. Please bless tweety51A and surround them with Your favor as with a shield.
Stengthen this family and let them know the proper way to heal in their minds so that in the end of their journey that the only one taking them home is You and not depression and false guilt. Thank You Father

Dear Lord We lift up this entire family to you now. We pray, father God, that you would comfort those left behind, and help them to put the pieces back together.

Heavenly Father, please shower this family with Your grace, blessings and protection and turn their hearts towards You for redemption and rebirth in Your love. Evil has come hard against them to separate them from You, to harm them and cause profound, generational grief and sorrow amongst them. Father, we know the evil one attacks those it sees as a threat so we ask that You give them all strength and tenacity to bear up against this latest assault, to break forever this generational curse and overcome this world and the evil in it, that You guide them back to You. Lord, give anon tweety51A and all her family peace in their hearts and comfort in their souls. In Jesus’ blessed name. 🙏✝️
Shivala’s TEACH writing is truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us. May she Rest In Peace and may you all, her family, be comforted by loving memories of happy times spent together with her.

Lord, please cover these children, their father, and the entire family with your protective grace and mercy through this. I pray you would take their pain and turn it ibto a beautiful testimony of your love. Amen.
Thank you for such a lovely prayer...
