First of all, may God bless you with understanding, wisdom and patience. Through all of our suffering, we become closer to Jesus.
"Be Still and Know that I am God." Psalms 46:10
We don't always know why things happen...all we can do is know that God has a plan for everything and God only has plans that lead directly to Him.
Your baby brother is a special saint living now in the Kingdom of Heaven. Take comfort in that.
I will pray for you.

Honey, I can't think of any verse right now, but I am sure if you just flip through the Bible you will find something God wants you to read.
I pray you can cope with losing your precious brother, and I am so sorry. It must be very hard dealing with something like that. If you talk to God whenever you need somebody to listen, He will, I promise you. He is there for you and waiting for you to talk. Do this: Imagine Him holding your baby brother in His arms, then imagine yourself curled up safely in His palm, where He cradles you safely as you sleep.
He loves you, darling, Let Him guide you. I pray you are OK.

I'm sorry. Isaiah 66:13 No one can possibly say anything to make it better. But know that God did not desire your brother's death. Not everything that happens on earth is God's will. He is the only one who can help you get through. And it's good to keep his memory alive by talking about him. May God bless you.

Jesus said himself, "Blessed are the little children for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
Rest assured in knowing he's in heaven and will never suffer or cry again. He's with Jesus and the angels and even if he was offered would not even want to come back now...he's happy and content.
The bible says not to cry when someone dies but rejoice because they go to a much better place than we are in...this is impossible to do but it explains how wonderful Heaven must be!

I don't know, off the top of my head, a verse for your situation. If you read the 21st chapter of Revelations you may find comfort there. I can assure you this, your brother is in the comforting arms of God and should you live right and make it to heaven you shall be reunited with him there. Be careful here...many people answer here that could care less about you or your feelings and future, they can be mean and calloused but don't get angry with them for God will judge them accordingly as he promised in Matt.
God Bless you and your family!

i am deeply sorry about the loss. i dont know a whole lot of scriptures to help. however i would just say dont turn away from God and blame him or anyone else. i lost my mom a couple years ago. and believe me i blamed myself all the time for it. i just prayed and prayed and at first it was hard i was thinking of her and so much. as i prayed for God to ease the pain and cont. to read my Bible it made it easier. it is ok to cry. but remember he is in heaven with a better life then he ever could have here on earth.

I hope these verses help some.
Revelation 21:3,4
3 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
John 5:25-29
25 “Most truly I say to YOU, The hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who have given heed will live. 26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted also to the Son to have life in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to do judging, because Son of man he is. 28 Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.
Romans 12:12
Rejoice in the hope. Endure under tribulation. Persevere in prayer.
2 Corinthians 1: 3,4
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those in any sort of tribulation through the comfort with which we ourselves are being comforted by God.

John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
Your brother is an innocent dear one not reaching the age of understanding... be at peace and comfort knowing your brother is with the Lord.
God bless you will be keeping you and your family in prayer.
