Hello Mayben Family, losing a loved one can be very difficult so I would like to share an encouraging scripture with you. The scripture is found at Revelation 21:3,4. Here the Bible speaks of a promise God had made to rid the earth of anything that causes us pain and suffering. Yes, God will do away with all the terrible things we endure today, including death. Many people look forward to this time and find comfort in this promise from God. I hope you find this promise comforting as well during this difficult time.
