You are so right, only in Christ is there comfort.
Our 18 year old son who was about to start his second year of college was killed in a car accident with another guy the same age who had come from a grauation party and had been drinking.
There is no denying God the souls he wants in His arms.
I wrote a letter to the court to have mercy upon the young man, for it made no sense to ruin two lives by putting him away for years on end.
He is now out, working, and helping teach young people the devistating effects of bad decisions like drinking and driving.

I miss our boy but don’t wish him back, for what Christian would rather have their child in this sinful world than in the loving arms of our heavenly Father.
To God be the glory, and may He bless you all.

Bless you for your post!
That is such amazing evidence of the goodness and faithfulness
of our God.
To hear you speak with such clarity about an incredible tragedy gives me
hope that I ( through His strength alone) can handle anything in this life.
If you don't mind would you please pray for my son Reagan who will be delivered in October? The sonogram shows a cleft lip and probably a cleft palate.
We know there is much worse to deal with, but right now it is our
challenge.
He will have two very sweet and loving siblings to help us with him.
But we need God's strength more than ever.
Thanks and God bless you in every way.

We all have been forgiven so much by our loving Father. Your mercy upon that young fellow is evidence to God’s divine mercy towards you.

God Bless you for being a beacon of light in a dark world.
