Our sympathy. Sorry for your loss. May God sustain you during your time of bereavement. Psalm 94:19
I want to offer my condolences to the Harvey family and friends. Our Heavenly Father knows the pain you feel from the loss of your love one. He did not purpose his human family to die but to live and enjoy life forever. This is still his purpose (Psalms 37:11, 29). He calls death an enemy that will be removed forever along with all pain and suffering__ 1 Corinthians 15:26; Revelation 21:4 “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.” Notice his promise to awaken all those in the memorial tombs from asleep in death¬__ Isaiah 26:19 “Your dead will rise ...Awake and shout joyfully you residents in the dust! ...the earth will let those powerless in death come to life." What a delight it will be to see them again! Allow these words to keep comforting all of you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Even Jesus wept at the loss of a loved one. Please remember the scriptural promises at Acts 24:15 and Rev 21:3, 4 and draw comfort. Isaiah 55:11.
