Please accept our deepest sympathy. It surely is a very difficult time; but we both hope you can find some comfort in the words of Psalms 34:18 which reads: ?Ç£Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit.' Yes, you can rely completely on our Loving God. He also has made the SURE promise of a resurrection right HERE ON EARTH when it is restored to a beautiful paradise (Acts 24:15; Psalms 37:9-11, 29, Isaiah 55:11). Then death will be gone forever (Isaiah 25:8; Revelation 21:3,4) Going online at JW.ORG, you will be able to find out more about this resurrection on earth and as well as videos. Why not find out for yourself.
