Suicide!

This will just be a brief prayer request. In recent posts I have mentioned my youngest son who is not yet saved. Yesterday, his friend's family had to make the decision to disconnect the machines that had been keeping their daughter 'alive' since Sunday. They found her that morning unconscious and not breathing on her bedroom floor. They rushed her to the hospital but despite all the medical efforts, she was declared brain dead yesterday morning. The cause? An overdose of oxycodone, crushed and snorted. No one knows if she intended to die or simply get high, but the end result is that a lot of people are searching for answers where there are none to be found. Pray that somehow, my son will see God's sovereign hand even in this tragedy, because right now he can't. He sees only the big question, "If God loves us so much, why did He let my friend be so disillusioned with reality that she felt she had to get high, or worse, want to die?" As a mother, I just don't know what to say to this or what answers to give him that won't sound trite or overly simplistic. I have enough faith in His purposes to know that He has one, even if I can't see it right now. My son doesn't. Pray that the right words will spill from my mouth somehow and that God will be glorified even at this horrific moment in time.
