More Scriptures

Death is a scary thing.
So it might be weird that I've spent the last five minutes looking up scriptures on death.
But the scriptures offer a lot of comfort.

If you've lost a love one recently, have moments of grief remembering someone who's passed away, or if you have a friend who needs help coping with loss turn to the scriptures. They provide simple truths about the reality of death; not the giant wall our human minds have set up, but the doorway it is meant to be.

Here are some of the scriptures I found, and a basic summary next to them:

Alma 14:11 (those unjustly killed)
24:21, 26 (those killed as civilians in a war)
40:12 (state of paradise)
46:39 (having faith)
46:41 (those dying of old age)
56:11 (soldiers)
D&C 42:46 (righteous death)
101:36 (joy after death)

122:9 (days are numbered)
