Default Prayer for my brother - please

Hi all, I haven't been on in awhile. Something is going on with my brother now and he won't tell me about it all but I get the strong impression that he feels he is in danger and that he will need to defend himself at some point and he is preparing for this. Plus, he is on a morbid streak talking about what it feels like to die and songs for his future funeral but he promises he would never commit suicide because he says it is for wimps. I'm very, very worried about what this is all about. I just found it out today in a letter he sent but he doesn't explain much. I am waiting for him to call so I can try to get him to talk about it with me. Will you all make a point to pray for him? I am doing that too. Anybody else go through this?
Thank you and God bless.

Oh, my goodness honey, we will pray for him. I do hope you can get him to open up to you. I hope i never have to face that with my brother. I am praying for him to have strenght and courage to face what ever has come up in his life. You have to be so worried. Tell him we all are praying for him. He is special, God said so.

So sad! Prayers are being sent your way and to your brother. I hope that you get to talk with him and that he finds some comfort and ways to deal with his problems.

I am sorry to hear what your brother is going thru. One thing that you can do is when you talk to him tell him that you will contact someone at the unit and ask he be put in solitary confinement and see if you can work on him being transferred to another unit. See what he says about it, as he will not be able to say too much about what is going on, on the phone. He is definately in my prayers as are you.

Thank you everyone, for your support. I talked to him tonight so I know he is okay for now. He was pretty non-specific on the phone, just like you said e-wife. He told me not to worry and that he could take care of himself, but I think he is just protecting me. His letters and his phone calls don't match up that well. I get to see him next weekend so I hope he will be more open then. I'll just keep praying and trusting God. Thanks again. It really helps me to know you are out there thinking of me and my brother and praying.
