You need to know that God is Sovereign

II.

You need to know that the Father cares about your sorrow.

You will not fully know the sympathy of God apart from the sorrow of this world.

III.

You need to know that Christ has a place for kids in his kingdom.

Children here is paideia, just a general word, but Luke uses the word brephos, that’s babies, that’s infants, sucklings, little children.

I believe that the Bible is teaching us that Our Lord graciously and freely received all those who die in infancy – by his grace that is given to them because of the work of Christ.

John F. MacArthur Jr., John MacArthur Sermon Archive (Panorama City, CA: Grace to You, 2014).

Laylee Rose - Is Good - She moved from the NICU to the Throne Room! That’s a promotion.

You need to know that God’s grace is enough.

The hymn-writer understood this wonderful picture:

When darkness veils His lovely face,

I rest on His unchanging grace;

In every high and stormy gale,

My anchor holds within the veil.

His oath, His cov’nant, and His blood

Support me in the’whelming flood;

When all around my soul gives way,

He then is all my hope and stay.

On Christ, the Solid Rock, I stand

All other ground is sinking sand.

IV.

You need to know that death doesn’t have the final word, Jesus does!
