Sheila, very sorry for the loss of your son. Prayers to you and your family.
With deep sympathy your sorrow is shared. When death separates us from our loved ones we can appreciate why the Bible refers to it as an enemy-1 Corinthians 15:26. But he has promised to reverse the effects of this by means of the resurrection, may comfort and peace come from this hope. Acts 24:15
Right now, when your loss is so fresh, it may be difficult for you to imagine that this pain will ever go away. But in time the blessing of God’s unfailing love will soften the hurt you’re feeling and bring your heart the peace, comfort and hope that it needs to heal. How? Revelation 21:4 tells us that soon everything that causes us pain, including death, will be gone forever. We also have the hope of our loved ones being resurrected here on earth, as Acts 24:15 tells us. I do hope you find comfort in this.
Though I did not know your loved one, I am touched by your loss. Please accept my sincere condolences. JW.org.
