Smith, Leona
To the Family,
I am deeply sorry to hear of your loss. Losing my parent has been difficult for me.
However, I found this scripture helpful. It is what Jesus said at John5:28,29: “28Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,29And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life;”
Hopefully thinking about what these verses state can help your family during this time as it has for me.
I would like to express my condolences in the loss of your dear loved one. [ I Corinthians 15:26] tells us that death is our enemy, this is truly so because of the pain. The bible gives us hope of seeing them again in the promised resurrection to come according to [John 5:28-29] and [Acts 24:15]. We find further hope in scriptures such as [Revelations 21:3-5] and [Isaiah 25:8] which says in part that Jehovah God will wipe out every tea from our eyes and death will be no more, because God will swallow up death forever. I hope these scriptures will be of some comfort.
With Deep Sympathy.
