Dear Family,
I would like to send my condolences. It can be extremely difficult to lose a loved one. That is why I wanted to share the hope found in the bible, the hope of the resurrection. Jesus stated at John 5:28,29 “The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will come out.” And at Revelation 21:3,4 it states that there will be a time when “…death will be no more.”
I hope you get a chance to look up these scriptures; they give us hope for the future as respects to our dead loved ones. Those scriptures have brought comfort to me and I hope it does the same for your family.
With Love,
India
