I am sorry for your loss. The loss of a loved one leaves a void that words just do not fill. However, the promises in the Bible fill every void. When Jesus was on earth he said, “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” That is found in the Bible at John 5:28, 29. The Bible also tells us that this resurrection will occur on earth. Although there is definitely life in heaven, the Bible states at Revelation 21 3, 4, “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Since death, and suffering do not exist in heaven, this is on earth. I do hope that this comforts your family.
