    So very sorry for the tragic death of your loved one. Losing someone so young is heartbreaking, and there are few words of comfort. When my oldest son, Sonny Jack, passed away suddendly with an epileptic seizure in his sleep eight years ago, it broke my heart. Even though. we are promised a resurrection hope of our loved ones at John 5:28, 29 and Acts 24:15, it did not bring comfort at the time because I wanted him back now. I didn’t want to wait. Each day I begged God to help me cope. Then someone told me to look up Isaiah 41:10, 13. The scripture became a lifeline for me during this difficult time. It says in verse 10, “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness .” Verse 13 continues - “For I, Jehovah your God, am grasping your right hand, The One saying to you, ‘Do not be afraid. I will help you.” What a beautiful scripture of comfort from our heavenly Father, Jehovah God. Hopefully this beautiful scripture brings you a measure of comfort during the hard days ahead.
