Dear Family of Stephen,
I read about the loss of your husband/father and wanted to offer some words of encouragement from the bible.
It's always hard when close family members fall asleep in death. The pain, the grief, and the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times, we need to go to God's word for comfort. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4.
I read that Stephen was far too young to die so how wonderful it is that the Bible makes us a promise at John 5:28,29 that there will be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous. If we have confidence in this resurrection hope promised in the Bible, then your sorrow may not be unrelenting.
1Thessaionians 4:13 says, you will not have sorrow as the rest also do who have no hope. Rather, you will draw close to God in Prayer.
I pray our creator will comfort you and I'd love to share more.##imported-begin##Mary Ann Gonzales##imported-end##
