Please accept my condolences. 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 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 one, 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. Jesus taught us to pray for that Kingdom in the “OUR FATHER PRAYER.” MATTHEW 6:9-10,33.
