Please accept my condolence. Please know that the “God of Comfort” feels your pain and sorrow. He actually provides something BETTER to look forward to. Jeremiah 29:11 specifically tells us God wants to give us a “FUTURE and HOPE.” God promises in the near future ALL the pain and sorrow you are experiencing about your loss will be gone and we will be able to enjoy PERFECT life with ALL our LOVED ones. While words fail to capture the PAIN of losing loved ones, we look forward to the time when words will FAIL to capture the JOY of having our HEAVENLY FATHER return your DEAR one to you through GOD’S KINGDOM. The BLESSINGS will come to those living on the earth. JOHN 5:28-29, PSALMS 37:9-11,29, ECCLESIASTES 1:4. JESUS taught us to pray for that KINGDOM/GOVERNMENT in the “OUR FATHER PRAYER” MATTHEW 6:9-10,33.
I wanted to express my sincere sympathy and offer some words of encouragement from God’s word, the Bible. Jesus likened death to sleep. He used his God-given power to resurrect ones like Lazarus. (John 11:11,43,44) The Bible records 8 instances of humans being brought back to life on earth. These resurrections were a fore-gleam of what Jesus, as king of God’s kingdom, will soon do for all who have died. (Acts 24:15, John 5:28,29) God’s word also tells us what life on earth will be like during this time. It promises that there will be no more pain, death, sickness, or wickedness. (Revelation 21:4; Isaiah 33:24; Psalm 37:10,11) What a wonderful hope that is- to welcome back our loved ones who have died to perfect health and conditions! And to have this hope ourselves!
Feel free to contact me, if you’d like more information about these Bible promises and how Bible prophecy proves it’s soon to take place. You can search for and read the brochure, When Someone You Love Dies, on the website jw.org. It was helpful and brought me comfort after I lost my mom. I’m so sorry for your loss!
