  1. I would to express my sincere condolences to the family of Ms. Anderson. I know she surely will be missed. Even though I personally didn’t know her, I know that one of the hardest experiences that humans go through is losing a love one in death, and therefore I like sharing words of comfort from God’s word the Bible. Our hearts can feel broke, and we may feel like we can’t carry on but The Most High God(Ps 8318) is near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in sprit he saves-Ps 3418). He comforts us by letting us know that one day we won’t hear that anyone has died, because death will be no more, neither tears of sorrow, mourning, outcry or pain. Yes, all things will be made new, and we can put our trust and confidence in this, because Jehovah doesn’t lie!-Rev 214,5) We also are greatly comforted in knowing of the bibles promise at John 528, 29 of the resurrection hope! Imagine seeing Eula again, and being able to spend time with her again forever! May your family be comforted and in peace! Please feel free to email me[emailprotected] Jamie H

  2. When we lose a loved one to death, grief & the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times as these, we need to go to means of faith ,in the merit of Jesus shed blood, that we can gain ; everlasting life.(John 316) The Bible gives Gods word for comfort. (2 Cor. 1 3,4) The Bible helps us to understand how Jehovah & Jesus feel about death. Jesus who perfectly reflected his Father, knew the pain of losing someone in death. (John 149) How did Jesus feel about losing his friend The account tells us that Jesus joined Lazarous relatives & friends as they grieved over this loss. Seeing them, Jesus was deeply moved. He groaned in the spirit & became troubled. Then the account says Jesus gave way to tears. (John 11 33,35) Did Jesus grief mean that he had no hope Not at all, in fact, Jesus knew that something wonderful was about to happen. (John 11 3,4) Still he felt the pain & sorrow that death brings. Jesus did not claim to perform this amazing miracle on his own. In his prayer just before calling out to Lazarus, he made it clear that Jehovah was the source of the resurrection. (John 1141,42)
