In the minister of the Lord Jesus Christ, our living Lord, we am privileged to bear His comfort to those in sorrow. Having recently learned of a death, I ask that you join me in calling upon the Lord, the giver of life,the Son of God, Jesus Christ who is the source of eternal life, to give peace and comfort, to dry the tears, and to soothe the pain of loss for those grieving today. In this time of sorrow we look back and see a cross, but we also see an empty tomb. How thankful we are and how fervently we cling to His promise, "Because I live, you shall live also." John 14:19
Isaiah 41: 10
Fear thou not: for I am with thee; be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee
with the right hand of my righteousness.
2 Corinthians 1:3,4
Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our tribulations, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
Let us be sensitive to the families and their sorrow in times such as this. We can show our care by being there, by listening, and by feeling the sorrow of those who are grieving. Spend time with them, but don't intrude on their privacy when they feel the need to have it.
Join me in being a blessing to those in need.
Thank you,
The_Marquise
