Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear loved one. God's Word the Bible offers the wonderful hope seeing her again at Acts 24:15 and John 5:28,29. During this time no one will be sick and suffering of all kind will be wiped completely away. (Isaiah 33:24; Psalms 37:9-11,29 and Revelations 21:3,4). Jesus words at Matthew 5:5 gives assurance that mild-tempered people will live on the earth "forever".
