I am so very sorry for your loss. The loss of someone we love is truly heartbreaking so I want to take just a moment and share a scripture that has given me much personal comfort. John 5:28,29 gives us this beautiful promise, “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” Our heavenly Father promises to very soon bring all our dear loved ones back to life through a resurrection and reunite them with us forever again. How we long for that wonderful day.
