Please pray for me...

My brother died unexpectedly a week ago. We were very close; he was really the last person to whom I could talk to and share with. I am so completely devastated that I wonder how I'm ever going to get through this. This is not a joke, so please, no cruelty. How does one recover when the world has been turned upside down and you have no one left? No one to share with? I feel like every minute is a chore to have to get through. They say God doesn't give you more than you can handle, but that just isn't true. I'm trying with all my might to continue to go on, but I admit my thoughts keep turning to suicide; my burden is too heavy and I'm desperate for an escape. I have enough religious conviction to feel that suicide is a sin. I'm praying for God to help me though this, but I think I need some more 'prayer power'. Please, if you can, take a minute to pray that my brother is at true peace and that I'll find a way to keep going on; that God will somehow ease my heavy heart and broken spirit.....
