Jennifer,
So sorry to hear the sad news about Matt. My heart goes out to you for your precious loss. I too, know the unbearable pain of losing a son. It is one of the most devastating experience's a mother can face. Suddenly, everything has changed! But, remembering all the wonderful times you shared together can help to comfort you always. And at times such as this, may you rely on the God of Love. He promises Hope! When He will soon end all suffering on the earth!
"He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. And the One seated on the throne said; "Look!" I am making all things new....these words are faithful and true."
