Please accept my condolences. It is encouraging to know that God has loving concern for bereaved ones. Psalm 146:9 states "...The fatherless boy and widow he relieves." He promises that one day he will 'wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." (Revelation 21:3,4)I look forward to the day when death will be no more and we will no longer have to experience the pain and suffering it brings. Until that time, I encourage you to put hope in the thought at John 5:28,29; Acts 24:15 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13,14. All of these provide us with the hope of being reunited with our loved ones by means of the resurrection. This brings me comfort and hope. I have faith in all of those scriptures because Titus 1:2 tells us that God can not lie. Please know that this will be accomplished by means of God's Kingdom which is mentioned at Daniel 2:44 and Matthew 6:9, 10. It is my hope that you are strengthened by these thoughts. May you read them from your own copy of the bible, meditate on them and gain faith in seeing your loved one again by means of the resurrection. Please review these scriptures in your own copy of the bible.
