Dear Smith Family, I am deeply sorry for your loss and would like to share an encouraging scripture with you. The scripture is found at Revelation 21:3,4. Here the Bible speaks of a time when all the terrible things that we see and endure today, including death, will be done away with. Yes, God has promised to do away with all the terrible things that we deal with today. Many people find this promise from God comforting, and I hope you find it comforting as well during this difficult time.
