I read about the death of your love one. Your family have my sincere condolences. When we lose someone in death, we feel helpless. But in God's Words the Bible we read at 1 Corinthians 15:26 about when "death the last enemy will be brought to nothing.". At John 5:28,29 tells us about the wonderful promise of the resurrection. We have the hope of seeing our love ones again, we all await this joyful time.
