I send my deepest sympathy for all families involved. May God wrap his arms around you and truly give you his peace that can surpass anything we can imagine.- Philipians 4:6,7

My sincere condolences for the families and friends that lost their loved ones in this terrible situation. I understand that Words of consolation itself cannot heal their broken hearts, but our Heavenly Father knows and understands our circumstances and His eyes are upon the righteous one and His ears listen to those who are under distress. Psalm 34:15,18. May He impart in the families the strength and comfort they need to endure their pain.

The heart can hurt from such deep pain and sorrow. I'm reminded of God's words at 1John 3:20 of how God is greater than our hearts and knows all things. He knows the pain and feels it just like you. He is the God of all comfort and is there to give you comfort (from his word) abundantly in your time of loss. Rely on and trust in him to endure this painful experience in your life.

As a teenager, I feel distanced from death, but when I heard of the crash, I was reminded that this small life we are given is defined by love and faith. For this reason, I know that your family members' love will live on and perhaps my feelings of deepest condolence can be expressed. May God, and all the mercy and love in this world, be with you.
