God is Mercy.

While you are grieving the loss of your brother, remember that you have been given a powerful ministry when you surrendered your life to serve others. Your brother and his family will benefit from your sacrifice because you love them and will never forget them.

St. Stephen’s prayer for Deacons
Come to my assistance my Lord and my God, that I may do for You all that you ask. Strengthen me in adversity and do not let me succumb to my feelings of worthlessness. Help me to feel in my heart all that You speak to me, and help me to understand. May I be to others what they need: a body to work when others cannot; a heart to love those who are forgotten; a shoulder to console those whose soul is in need; a smile to brighten the most somber of Your children; a mouth to proclaim Your love. Let me be to You, as a brush is to a painter, worthless without You, but capable of transforming the human heart by the power of Your mercy. Send me, my Lord if you need me, to touch others as You would touch them, to hold them as You would, to love them as only You can. Make my heart like Yours, that I may forgive everything and love beyond my own human frailty. Come live within me, that I may die to myself so You may fill my very being. Let me serve others as You would serve them, that in doing so I may serve You. Do not let me fail, oh Lord, or lead Your people astray. Allow me to live in Your presence today, that tomorrow I may die in Your hands and may You raise me one day that I may touch your face and live in Your glory

A beautiful prayer worthy of repetition. Thank you! Sometimes I pray the prayer for deacons offered by Bishop Lucia on the day of my ordination. Next to St. Stephen (Acts 7), St. Lawrence is my favorite inspiration. But what a beautiful closure to the above prayer; may this be my experience to come:

(May I) die in Your hands and may You raise me one day that I may touch your face and live in Your glory!
