I am so sorry for your loss. May God's message of hope for our dear loved ones who have already died bring you a measure of comfort and strength to keep you going during this difficult time. ISAIAH 25:8 and ACTS 24:15

My condolences in the loss of your dear loved one. The pain of grief we feel when our loved ones die can sometimes be unbearable. The comforting words from our heavenly father Jehovah found at Isaiah 25:8; He (God) will swallow up death forever. And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe the tears from all faces, and Psalm 34:18; Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit, will help you to cope with the grief and sadness now and in the days ahead.
