Finding Peace After Loss

It’s been tough for me since losing my brother last month. We were so close, and not a day goes by where I don’t wish I could just pick up the phone and hear his voice again. He always knew how to make me laugh, even during rough times. I think about the last time we spoke—September 22nd. I wish I had said more then. Honestly, some days are overwhelming. I feel this weight in my chest that won't go away, and I often find myself lost in memories that bring both comfort and pain. I'm trying to honor his memory by staying active in my life, but some days I just feel paralyzed by grief. Financially, things have been tight since I took time off work to help take care of him during his illness. I’ve got bills piling up, and I know he wouldn't want me to stress, but I feel like I’m carrying the world on my shoulders. I’d really appreciate some prayers for healing, comfort, and maybe even a little clarity on how I can navigate this new reality without him. Thank you for being there. I’m grateful for this community.
