For my brother.

Whether the need is great or small, there is power in prayer, especially when God's people raise their voices together.

I have just been informed of the death of my 2nd youngest brother. Details are unknown, but he was a relapsed alcoholic and depressed. Details forthcoming.

Praying for you, your brother, and your family.

I've buried two brothers-in-law that were relapsed alcoholics in the last 18 months (one last week), so I understand that pain. They were brothers-in-law, but during the decades of their sobriety prior to relapse I was actually closer to them than my actual siblings.

The ravages of alcoholism and addiction are really quite awful.
