I would like to offer my sincere condolences for the passing of your loved one. I hope you will find comfort from the Scriptures and the resurrection hope(Acts 24:15)when those who have fallen asleep in death, will be restored back to life with the hope of eternal life on the renewed Paradise earth.-John 5:28,29; Luke 23:43. Until that blessing unfolds and you are reunited with you loved one again, may GOD(Psalms 83:18)grant you peace and comfort now during this time of sorrow.-Matthew 5:4.
