My condolences go out to the entire family. Though I have no ties to the deceased or family, I would still like to leave a comforting thought. It is very hard to lose a cherished loved one. Please take great comfort in knowing that you all have the opportunity to see your loved one again. God will call and they will answer! (John 5:28,29)
Please know that your family has my deepest sympathy. May you find comfort from God's Word, the Bible. Rev. 21:3,4 says that Jehovah will wipe every tear from our eyes, and death will be no more, neither will outcry or pain be any more. The former things has passed away. We all look forward to this time when we can see our love ones again.
May your family find comfort in knowing that Jehovah as an appointed time to due away with death. Rev 21:3,4 mentions death as one of former things that will be a thing of the past.
Dear Family and Friends: Please accept my condolences for the passing of your dear loved one. When someone we love dies, the heartache and grief can be great. I hope that you can be comforted knowing that "The Most High God Jehovah" is the "Hearer of Prayer (Psalm 65:2). He promises to "swallow up death forever and wipe the tears from all faces" (Isaiah 25:8). And we have the opportunity of being reunited with our dead loved ones again, as promised at John 5:28,29. May your pleasant memories of Mr. Morgan, Sr., and the reliability of this wonderful promise, soothe and comfort your hearts during this grievous time.
I am saddened to learn of the loss of your dear Johnny. Please take comfort in knowing that Our Heavenly Father has already made provision to awaken him from sleep very soon. This future Resurrection will be to a cleansed Paradise Earth, where sorrow and sickness will be a thing of the past, and life will be Eternal ( Mark 5:38-43, Psalms 37: 11,29, and Rev. 21:4). This is no mere dream , and is spoken about in The Bible by Gods' Son Jesus. At John 5:28-29 it reads in part, " Do not be amazed, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out...". This promise, issued from Our Creator is what Johnny will come back to. May this wonderful hope, and your treasured memories of him keep you strong and be a salve to your broken hearts. God always keeps His promises ! (Titus 1:2) Mrs. D. Ward in Michigan. For Christian information on how to deal with the death of a loved one visit www.jw.org
