My heart is broken today as I reflect
on the caos and emotions that everyone goes through when they lose a loved one.
My prayers are for my families comfort
and peace.
It doesn't matter who you are
what faith you are
how old you are
what gender you are......
we are ALL saddened by the death of a loved one
and everyone mourns in their own way.
Death is so unnatural.
The Bible speaks of death as an enemy.
And this is why we look forward to the time when Jehovah will do away with this enemy death (1 Corinthians 15: 26)
This week I read a timely article
in the
Watchtower magazine
dealing with the very subject
of
"When Someone You Love Dies."
I am so grateful that Jehovah has provided these tools for us to find comfort and that
I have a hope for my loved ones that have died
and
that I know the truth about
my loved ones who have died
and the fact that I know
how to
USE my Bible
to find comfort when we are faced with the death of a loved one.
If you have been affected by the death of a loved one
I urge you
to read this article on the right of this page
and Please
look up every scripture in your Bible
so that you can be comforted as my family has been.
We look forward to the day when we will see
Matthew again
and he will be smiling
and not in pain.
We look forward to seeing him again very soon
along with
all of our precious family and friends
who have died
as
they await the day that they will be awoken from their sleep in the resurrection (John 5: 28, 29)
This is dedicated to the memory of Matthew Raymond Martinez
who was a very talented and sensitive young man.
Until we meet again.....
