I wanted to express my deepest sympathy and concern for you. I also wanted to remind you of the wonderful hope for our dead loved ones. As you grieve Layton’s death, please think of the hope in question, which comes from Jehovah God, the Source of life (Psalms 36:9). By means of His word, the Bible, He allows us to understand how He’ll eliminate death for good one day. Reading Scriptures like (Isaiah 25: 8), (John 5: 28), (1 Corinthians 15:26), (Revelation 21:3,4), where that hope is highlighted will surely comfort and give you inner peace. God’s promises are guaranteed because Titus 1 verse 2, says God cannot lie. Moreover Jesus who also promises to bring the dead back to life demonstrated he’s capable of doing it when he resurrected Lazarus and several others when he was on earth (John 11 verses 11-14, 39, 43, and 44). So as you anticipate your dear baby’s resurrection, please heed Jesus’ invitation in John 17, verse 3 to gain accurate knowledge of both God and Jesus by studying the Bible. In John 5 verse 39, Jesus also explains that such study is vital if one wishes to have endless life one day here on earth, which will become a paradise where you can be re-united with Layton again. (Ps: 37: 29). If you would like more information check out this website: www.watchtower.org or contact the local congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses and they’ll be glad to assist you. May Jehovah provide the comfort you need to endure this loss!

My heart is broken for you all right now. What a sweet little angel we will always have watching over us. We will never understand why these things happen, but what we can know is that God will get us through it. I know that in Layton's short life, he has touched more people than we will ever realize. Thank you for allowing us to be a part.
Love you all dearly,
Sarajane
