I'm so sorry for your loss! I know God feels for you at this time. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 calls God the "Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our trials".Death was never part of his purpose, and He promises a resurrection at John 5:29 : "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." My prayers are with you at this time
Amy and family,
I just wanted to let you know you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bring you comfort during this season of life.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-22
