I offer my heartfelt condolences to you Keith and the Fox family and friends of Polly When death robs us of someone we love very much, it causes much sadness and grief. Our loving heavenly Father gives us hope at Revelations 21: 4 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.” Isaiah 33:24 guarantees us: “And no resident will say “I am sick,” ever again. May these promises from Jehovah God (Psalm 83:18) bring you comfort. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. (John 5:28, John 6: 40, John 11:23-25, Acts 24:15, Job 14:14-15, Isaiah 26:19)
I pray you will find comfort reading the above scriptures in your personal Bible. If you had the opportunity to see your dead loved ones again, alive and in perfect health here on earth, would you take it? Of course, we all would! The Bible says we will!! If so, please watch this short, faith strengthening video: “Can The Dead Really Live Again?” http://vimeo.com/198453012 You are in my prayers during this difficult time.
Keith, you and the Fox family and friends of Polly are in my prayers during this difficult time. May you continue to find comfort from God’s word.
Isaiah 33:24 guarantees us: “And no resident will say “I am sick,” ever again.
Our loving heavenly Father promises us that he is going to do away with man’s greatest enemy, death. Rev. 21: 4; “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”
