Father God of all comfort, please be with this family. Pour your strength in them to simply take the next right step, Jesus. Thank you for your word, Father, that reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 saying “But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that fall asleep; that ye sorrow not, even as the rest, who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” I know personally, however, with the sudden traumatic passing of my 15 year old nephew that it can be very hard to understand and fully grasp these words. May you surround them with a Godly support group to carry them through this when it seems impossible to even get up. Help them to remember to reach out to others hurting and to serve them as that is where joy in the midst of suffering is truly found. Thank you for answering our prayers, Father. In Jesus name we pray. Amen
