Baby Jeremiah Anothony Chatterton

From the Carter Family. Please feel free to go to Jw.org for comfort as well.

When a wife loses a husband, she’s a widow. When a child loses his parents, he’s an orphan. However, when a parent loses a child, THERE ARE NO WORDS! Please accept our deepest, deepest condolences for the loss of Baby Jeremiah. We pray our loving Heavenly Father (Psalm 83:18) grants you peace and comfort during the challenging days ahead. Please feel free to reach out to me if you ever need a listening ear. I too have lost a child and have found great comfort in God’s Word the Bible. It helps us to understand why God permits such a painful thing.

I want to offer my condolences to the Chatterton family. It is a painful thing to lose a precious one in death, especially when it is an infant. It pains our Heavenly Father because he said “The fruit of the womb is a reward”(Psalms 127:3). He calls death an enemy and that it will be removed forever__ Revelation 21:4; 1 Corinthians 15:26 “The last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing.” He promised to undo the effect of death by bringing all our love ones in the memorial tombs back to life__ Isaiah 26:19 "Your dead will rise ...Awake and shout joyfully you residents in the dust! ...the earth will let those powerless in death come to life. What a joy it will be to see baby Jeremiah again to enjoy life as our Creator purpose__ He will then “satisfy the desire of every living thing” (Psalms 145:16). Allow these words to keep comforting all of you.
