My name is Lynette and I read about Murielle's passing in the Obituaries and wanted to extend my condolences.
I too have lost love ones in death and I wanted to share what helped me to cope. Understanding the hope for the dead has brought me great comfort because we all want to enjoy life with our love ones again.
Lovingly, Jesus promised a beautiful hope at John 5: 28 & 29 which says:
"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, those who did good things to a resurrection of life".
Those resurrected will have the opportunity to live in paradise on earth in perfect health. We can have confidence in this promise.
