Ms. Crystal Patterson

My condolences in the loss of your beloved family member. Losing a loved one in death is very difficult. Our loving heavenly father has made a provision so that we can be reunited with our loved one again when the earth is a paradise. At John 11:25 Jesus said: ?Ç£I am the resurrection and the life.?ÇØ He is the One whom Jehovah God will empower to perform resurrections on a global scale. Jesus said: ?Ç£The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear (Christ?ÇÖs) voice and come out.?ÇØ (John 5:28, 29) Yes, all those sleeping in the grave have the prospect of being resurrected to life on a paradise earth. May these promises from our loving heavenly father comfort and strengthen you at this sad time.

My deepest sympathies to the friends and family. May Jehovah, the God of comfort, give you the strength to endure through your time of sorrow. He promises there will be a time when we will not have to worry about death taking our life or the life of those we love. Those who have died will be resurrected to life here on a paradise earth.
