Dear Bob, I am truly sorry to hear about your tragity! How my heart & prayers go out to you, right now. But, also realize this, in the meantime, all who turn to (Jehovah) The Almighty GOD, through Christ Jesus can be confident that even now HE will help and support them in coping with the gripping effects of a love one that has died. Though we don't have the answers to eveything - it is good to know that GOD - understands! Jonah2005 {*genesis!}TDS52 said:May I give some assurance to those who feel uneasy. Last December, as my dad was in the hospital awaiting his "homegoing", he was alert and able to talk with us about the scenes he was experiencing from the Heavenly shore. He gave us real assurance that Heaven is real for the Christian. He and my mom had lost their first child, he spoke of seeing him and holding him. He spoke of so many glorious scenes that we will one day get to experience ourselves. We can be assured, as I wrote in a previous post, of going to be with them. In 2 Samuel 12:15-23, you can read the story of David and Bathsheba's son being struck with sickness and how David prayed and fasted for the child to be well, but the child died. David's servants were afraid to tell him about the death of the child for he was in such sorrow over his sickness. When David learned that the child was dead, his whole attitude changed..."...he arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat. Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst
fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread. And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live? But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me." (verses 20-23)
May GOD grant peace to the hearts of those who have experienced the death of a child of any age.
