My deepest sympathies to the Braithwaite Family:
This is just a note to offer my condolesences to the bereaved family of
Mr. Allen G. Braithwaite Jr. Seeing someone you love die that was full of life brings much grief, sorrow and pain. Death is a sting that God says will soon be done away with in the future. God, confidently says at 1 Corinthians 15:26 that "the last enemy death, is to be brought to nothing! Our loving Creator knows how hard it is to lose a loved one. Death was never apart of his purpose for mankind. We are told at
Ezekiel 18:32 which says, "I do not take any pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord ".
As I have shared with you in the holy scriptures that it is not God's will for us to die, which is why he has given us a hope of everlasting life. What a prospect to know we have a hope to welcome our dear loved ones right here on the earth (John 5:28, 29)!
As the God and Father of tender mercies he wants us to find comfort through prayer, the holy scriptures and draw close to him (James 4:8).
