6 Ways to Help Your Child Deal With Death and Tragedy

6. Pray with your child. Take your concerns to the Lord.

Hang with your kids and hug your kids. They need your time and your affection. Mr. Rogers used to say, following a horrific event, look for the helpers.  Focus on the good, compassion, and care that God’s people demonstrate in the midst of disaster.

Just between us parents, the awful truth is we can’t always keep our kids physically safe so we must make sure they are ready…spiritually ready. Invite Jesus into your home today.

For God so loved the world…

Florida, we are praying for you.

Shalom,
Lori
