To the family of Marcus T. Myles, it is never easy when our loved ones fall asleep in death. However, we can find comfort from the scriptures to help us cope. The comforting words of Psalm 34:18 says; Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit. Also Jehovah promise at John 5:28,29 that in the very near future he will bring back to life our loved ones who have died and they will live free from sickness and death (Revelation 21:4) on a paradise earth. May these scriptures help you to cope with the grief and sadness now and in the days ahead.
