Please accept my condolences for the family and friends.. loosing someone you love is very devastating. During times like this I use comforting scriptures such as Isaiah 26:19 and Psalm 37:28,29 which states in part: “Your dead ones will live…They will rise up”. and also “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will forever reside upon it”. The Bible promises that we may be reunited with our loved ones that we have lost in death by means of an earthly resurrection. Please visit jw.org for more comfort and strength.
