Jesus Was Born To Bring You Comfort When A Friend Or Loved One Is Taken

He is with you when you are caught up in grief.
He is with you when you are caught up in shock.
He is with you when you are caught up in disbelief.
He is with you when you are doubled over in grief, shock, and pain from your loss.
He is with you when you are feeling your heart is torn out.
He is with you when you are feeling like you are in a nightmare and you cannot wake up.
Above all things, remember He is here to help you.
He is here to help you through this deep water.
Lean on Him.
Look to Him and do not cast your eyes anywhere else.
In your grief, think about Him.
In your loss, think about how much your loved one has gained by being with Him for eternity.
Christ is with you now and His love covers you.
Because His love is with you, He will make your present feelings of anguish subside little by little.
In this hour of your nightmare, Christ now touches you and lives within your heart to give you comfort.
In this hour of your shock, Christ is with you, guiding you, and helping you through every minute.
Christ is here to help you. He is here with you now.
As you kneel beside Him in His manger, know above all things He loves you.
