You are on our hearts and prayers. The loss of a precious child is hardest of all. Our loving heavenly father Jehovah God gives us comfort from the scriptures of Job 14:14-15 and John 5:28-29. We have a wonderful promise to see her again.
So sorry for the loss of your daughter.
May God give the family comfort during this difficult time. Please remember the words at Psalms 147:3 - He heals the brokenhearted; He binds up their wounds.
and also in Isaiah 25:8 - He will swallow up* death forever,
And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.
