I'm so sorry to hear of James’ passing . Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: 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. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
Dear Adams Family: Please accept my sincere aplogies for your loss. I can't even imagine the pain that your family is in. At times like this sometimes it feels like there is nowhere to turn. However, the bible gives much comfort. Acts 24:15 gives us the promise of a resurrection. This will enable our loved ones to live again. But until that time, Philippians 4:6,7 tells us that our heavenly Father will guard your hearts and mind's through this difficult time. Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
I have the honor of knowing Mr. Adams. He will be greatly missed. Prayers for the family.
May your family find comfort as “the hearer of prayer†continues to embrace their heart. We hope that the love of those close to your family provides needed encouragement during this most difficult time.
