Dear Betsy, Karen and Janet,
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother, Jean.
I know this is a difficult time for all of you. And it is during difficult times like this, where I have found comfort and hope in the promise found at John 5:28, 29 where it tells us that "all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice (meaning God's) and come out." How reasuring those words are for us today!
I encourage all of you, during this difficult time, to draw close to God in prayer and as brought out in Psalms 55:22 "and he himself (meaning God) will sustain you."
