1 Thessalonians 13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.
Psalm 34:18 says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit".
