To the family,

We would like to send our condolences for your loss. May you find comfort and hope in the promises made by Jehovah, "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."(2 Corinthians 1:3,4-New World Translation 2013)As "the Source" of life, Jehovah never intended for humans to get sick, grow old, or to die.(Psalms 36:9)Jehovah hates death because it was never part of his purpose. Jehovah calls death "the last enemy."(1 Corinthians 15:26)Because death is an enemy, Jehovah will do away with it. "He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces. For Jehovah himself has spoken it."(Isaiah 25:8)Although death is painful, there is hope. Jehovah says: "Many of those asleep in the dust of he earth will wake up."(Daniel 12:2)He says: "The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out."(John 5:28)You can trust Jehovah's promises. He is "the only true God" who "cannot lie."(Titus 1:2; 2 Kings 19:15)So, "trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength."-Isaiah 26:4, Holy Bible King James Version.
