I'm so sorry for your loss. When coping with such a tragedy, it can be hard to find the right kind of comfort. But there is one person we can always look to; God invites us to throw all our anxieties on him. His constant love for us proves to be a source of never ending comfort in times of great distress. - Psalm 119:76
