Loss of a Child

Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

The LORD is near to the brokenhearted; He saves the contrite in spirit.

But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;

I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,

…who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’ and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.”

In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid.
