Dear family,
I am writing this message because as human beings we know that the pain that death causes is inconsolable, and we could think that we will never see that person that meant a great love in our life and that left a very deep void in our heart again. But my dear friends, there are good news. Not everything is lost- the Bible, Gods word, gives us comfort and solace. It gives us hope and makes a wonderful promise to us.
- First he tells us that the dead are not suffering, that they are asleep in death (1 Thessalonians 4:14). In other words, God will awaken them by resurrecting them.
- Jesus Christ said "I am the resurrection and the life. He who exercises faith in me, even if he dies, will live "(John 11: 25).
- He promises us that 'there will be a resurrection' of all thoñse found in the memorial tombs (John 5:28, 29).
The resurrection teaches us of Gods love and undeserved kindness. Those who obey and are loyal to him can look forward to a life of paradise in the future.
Revelation 21:3-5
“With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true”.
May Gods word fortify you and help you endure.
