May Jehovah the God of all comfort help you to endure: By meditating on God’s promises found in the Bible you can find real hope and strength to keep going during this difficult time... Revelation 21:3-5 promises us a Future Blessing of no more pain, no more suffering, and no more Dying... Acts 24:15 promises us a future Resurrection, just think of your Joy when you see your dear loved ones again alive and healthy right here on earth. This is indeed good news from God who cannot lie. (Titus 1:2). .May the peace of God be with the family.
