Dear Brunnert Family,
I am sorry to read of your loss. When a loved one dies we can look to Jehovah God for comfort and hope through his word the Bible. At Acts 24:15 it says ” I have hope towards God, which hope these men themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection .” A resurrection is when our dead loved ones will be raised from the dead and be reunited with us. Can you imagine this happy time? We can be confident that this will happen because Jehovah God has said it will happen. I hope this thought helps you cope and remember to look to Jehovah God and he will help comfort you during this distressing time.
