Dear Family, my deepest condolences to you on the loss of your love one. The Bible instructs us to, draw close to God in prayer, and the Bible promises that "he himself will sustain you.”—Psalm 55:22. Also it states, Jesus Christ himself said: “Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.”—John 5:28, 29; Acts 24:15. This is a sure hope future hope for our dead loved ones to see them again, healthy and vibrant, in paradise here on earth.
