My heart goes out to you all for the loss of your dear loved one.It is comforting to know that there are promises to look forward to by means of God's Kingdom. One of these wonderful promises is in the Bible at Isaiah 25:8... the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will swallow up death forever and will wipe away the tears from all faces. I hope that scripture can be a means of comfort and provide you all hope as well throughout your grief.

I want to offer my condolences to the family and friends. It is a painful thing to lose a love one in death. Our heavenly Father of tender mercies calls death an enemy that He will take away forever__1 Corinthians 15:26 “The last enemy will be brought to nothing”; Isaiah 25:8. He never purpose for his human family to die but to live. It is still his purpose (Psalms 37:29). Notice the beautiful promise he has given to bring our love ones in the memorial tombs back to life__ Hosea 13:14 “From the power of the Grave I will redeem them; From death I will recover them.” What a joy it will be to see our love ones again free from suffering (Revelation 21:4.)I hope these words give all of you comfort and hope.
