John 14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me 

This verse is the most used Scripture in the Bible as text for a funeral. When Jesus spoke this to the disciples, they had great sorrow in their hearts, because they had just been told that Jesus would soon leave them. Notice the very first word says “let”. That word means that these disciples and we as well, have power to let. When Jesus tells them "let not", He is telling these disciples, you have it in your power to not be troubled, now don't do it. Jesus specifically mentions the heart. What we are, issues from our heart. It appears from the very first verse, that we have the power to not be troubled in our heart. Faith is the opposite of fear. Where there is true faith fear can not enter in. When faith appears, it cancels our fear.
