My heartfelt sympathy to families and friends. Lost of loved ones in death and coping with the big adjustments of such a great loss brings is never easy. Jehovah God will be our secure refuge knowing that He felt what we feel. The resurrection hope found in the Bible helps you to gain an inner calm and strength.-John 5:28,29. May you find comfort now by meditating on the prospect of meeting your loved ones again.
