John 11:40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
Allready before the Lord have being in the dark places of earth He raised up Lasarus. Be comforted in His Holy Name. Now we know what to expect. In love for Jesus love u in Christ. Amen
So sorry about your daughter. Such a huge loss, especially with the way she died. This is hard to go through. My prayers are with you. As believers, we just don't think about these things happening to our kids as they grow through childhood since they are being raised in a Christian home. It is confusing, because we do not know why God allowed this to happen when we have tried our best to bring them up God's way and provide a loving faith filled environment for our children.
When awful things happened to my sons when they hit the teen years, I was blindsided, having thought that God would keep them due to the way we believed. I learned to pray every day for them since then. You are blessed to have two younger children, but surely you miss your daughter every day and grieve for her. Commit yourself to pray to God help. Grieve before Him. He will comfort you day by day. Pray for your other children more diligently than ever before.
Lean on friends and accept help. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. I really don't think we can ever draw as near to Him as is possible. e will be your strength through this time. He is the Mighty One. God's blessings on you and your family.
Good morning Jennifer, I'm so very sorry for your loss. 2 Timothy 1:12 b this load is to heavy for you, commit it to Christ, and He will carry your load. I have proved it true. Isaiah 53:4,5 and Matthew 11:25-28. Give yourself time to mourn, but when thoughts crowd in with "if only, would've ,should've, say no! That's God's business, He will carry you and give you strength for your small children. He will carry you close to His heart like a shepherd does a lamb, leave it with Him He is able. You are in my prayers.

Psalm 27:10
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
Romans 8:15
For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Ephesians 1:5
Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to HIMSELF, according to the good pleasure of his will,
There is no greater commandment from God than we are to love God and love others. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. The second most important command is this: Love your neighbor the same as you love yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these ( Mark 12:30-31).
The ultimate commandment is to love. When we love God, we trust God, we trust God's Word, and we want to obey all His commandments. We love our neighbor (family, friends, children and strangers), we treat them with gentleness, kindness, patient, hope, support, trust, forgiveness, and we believe in them. In the same way, when we love ourselves, we are positive in our actions and hope, we believe in ourselves, and we believe in our position in Christ. When we love others, we are obeying God's greatest commandment.
Children's needs are small really: a bed, food, hugs and touch, a few special toys, a walk around the block to imprint where they live now, see other children. Assurance that you will never leave them; and that their mother is ok and they can talk to her in prayer. They don't need details unless they ask.
When sin happens, we wait 30 mins for impatience and anger to pass. Discuss the issue, both parties decide appropriate "punishment" calmly. I took a favorite toy and put high up out of reach for an hour so they see it and long to be restored to it. Set a alarm clock.
Yelling hardens the heart and resentment boils inside. Daily, read a few Proverbs & discuss their meaning.
So sorry for the loss of your daughter. Please trust in God, read your bible and He will strengthen you, and your faith will grow, and He will give you rest during this time of heavy burden. Here's some bible scripture that you may find comforting:
Matthew 11:28-30
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Psalms 147:3
"He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds."
Psalms 73:26
"My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever."
Psalms 34:22
"The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate."
Hi Jennifer Gods knows your need better than anyone else, also he knows your heart, these are for the mind to heal, He sent His Word and healed them. Romans 5:1+2 Peace with God, greatest cargoes of life come in over quiet seas.
Romans 8:28-39 more than a conqueror and nothing [think about that] can separate us from the Love of God which was in Christ Jesus our lord. You and God are not at odds anymore he is your Father and fathers meet the need of all His Children.
1 John 3:1+2 Beloved now are we the Sons of God, also 3:20-22 he's there to answer prayer and needs during confusion quilt, condemnation, because he knows we will deal with this stuff.
2 Timothy 1:7 Anything opposite of these three is not of God.
Change your mind change your heart
Put on in the mind Colossians 3:15-17 also Colossians 1:11-14 and Ephesians 3:14-20 notice how many times Christ is mentioned. We were saved by confessing Romans 10:9+10 and at that time we received the spiritual power that raised Him from the dead that why Paul wrote Christ in us the hope of Glory
Ephesians 4:23-32 Putting on the new man in the mind that's why I said change your mind change your heart. Proverbs as a man thinketh in His heart so is he.
Philippians 4:6-9 Be careful for nothing means anxious in verse 6, now verse 13 notice through Christ again that's the power that works in us.
Colossians 1:11-13 we are strengthen with might and we have been made partakers of the saints in light its incredible.
We have been made more that conquerors through Him that loved and loves us and those scripture are part of that. There are over 400 promises in Gods word to us who believe we can only do whar we know and act on.
I need some scriptures to read
