I am very sorry for your loss. However, Almighty God is not the cause of death; neither does he take our loved ones away from us to be with Him. (Psalm 83:18; James 1:13) Death is our enemy and soon it will be brought to nothing. (1 Cor. 15:26) We have the hope of a resurrection at Acts 24:15. We will be able to see our lost loved ones again on a restored earth. (Psalms 37:11, 29) I hope this brings you peace.

To The Family, You have suffered a great loss and for that I truly sorry.Jehovah feels your pain . Psalms 145: 18,19 says " Jehovah is near to all those calling on him,... " Verse 19 says " He hears their cry for help and he rescues them." Almighty God will help you through your pain as he has helped me with my losses. Please rely on his tender care.

You have my sincere condolences. “May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:7) May the hope of a resurrection right here on a restored earth bring you comfort. (Acts 24:15; Psalm 37:11, 29)
