I was able to see and watch in Facebook Live the interment service of one of the youth in our church that died last week. Honestly we never had interacted in church since I am not active anymore in youth ministry. I have interacted with her mother because she contacted me to tutor her youngest son around 2022 I guess. She looks so weak and looks like she has no strength to see her son go. Of course I can't help but cry. I used to call them the Iglas boys. She had 4 boys. The two eldest boys are both guitarist in our church. Chris is the second to the eldest. The day before he died, he was the speaker for the midweek service or prayer meeting service. Another occasion why I find it hard to understand God.

I cannot imagine the pain to lose a son. I often find it hard to understand God.

We must keep to our faith and believe, I am sorry this has happened, I wish her all the best and many blessings, What did he die from?

There is no comforting words for mothers who lost a son. I pray that God will comfort her and her whole family in Jesus name, Amen. One of the church member in our local branch church lost their one and only child, and you know what after the burial they attended the Sunday Service and serve in the ministry, when a pastor asked them why they serve immediately and do not mourn, they just simply said, in any season of life, God deserve to be praise. They really learned to love God even in the hardest time, I praise God for their life. I hope I will have that strong kind of faith, but God knows I am not ready to let go of any of my family, anyway who will be ready when that time comes. To Christ be the glory forever.

Yes no comforting words. I used the verse in the Bible that says that all things work together for good to comfort my self

That's very very sad. It's awful for parents when their children pre-decease them.
