“Losing my Sons”
He will wipe away all tears from their eyes. There will be no more death, no more grief or crying or pain. The old things have disappeared.
Linda says:
I have lost 2 out of my 3 sons, as well as several other loved ones in my life. This verse [ Rev 21:4 (GNT)] was my youngest son’s favorite, after losing his older brother. 11 yrs later, he was also gone. I took comfort from this verse knowing he also believed in Jesus and is with his older brother, in Gods’ arms.

My most esteemed and beloved Linda in Christ:
May you be comforted by your two precious sons in our “Father’s house” (John 14:1-3), who continue to inspire us with their faith and wisdom through you here on earth.
I lost my devoted husband and father of our 10 young children at age 49. We never fail to feel his presence and his protective arm over us even unto this day some two scores of years later.
Yes, “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers,…shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39).
May our ALL MIGHTY GOD Bless you and Keep you; Make His Face Shine Upon you and Be Gracious to you; The Lord Lift Up His Countenance upon you and Give you peace, always and forevermore!
Mary Sun.

Dearest Linda my sister in Christ; But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. Do not gloat over me, my enemy!. Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light.Because I have sinned against Him, I will bear the Lord’s wrath, until he pleads my case and establishes my right. He will bring me out into the light; I will see his righteousness. Micah 7:7-9
Now may the God of hope make you full of joy and peace through faith, so that all hope may be yours in the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
