So sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. May the treasured memories you have sustain your family during this distressing time. Our Creator, whose personal name is Jehovah, has given us a future promise that is soon to take place. At Isaiah 25:8a we read; “He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.” What a glorious time that will be! We are also given the future hope of the resurrection with the possibility of seeing them again (John 5:28-29 & Acts 24:15). May these and other scriptures you find, give you peace and comfort now.
