May your family and friends find comfort in God’s promise to “swallow up death forever… and wipe away the tears from all faces” (Isaiah 25:8). Along with the promise of a time soon when “death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4. Remember the hope of “a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous” (Acts 24:15). My sincere condolences to your family.
