To the Scott family, My deepest sympathy is with you and your family. It's very hard when we loose a loved one in death but at Revelation 21:4 God promises us that he will wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more. How wonderful to see our loved ones again to embrace them and welcome them back. So we have to fully rely and trust in God Proverbs 3:5,6. John 5:28,29 where God promises us that those in the memorial tombs will come out. These are promises from our Heavenly Father who is high over all the earth Psalms 83:18. Once again my deepest sympathy.

You have my deepest sympathy. Death is the most hardest part of our lives. At Isaiah 25:8 God will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord will certainly wipe the tears from all faces. So God promises us that the tears you have will be gone forever. At Acts 24:15 God promises us that there will be a resurrection of the righteous and unrighteous, so God will bring us back our loved ones. Once again my deepest sympathy.
