Condolence: My sincerest condolences to the family. Regardless of how much time you have had to spend with a loved one, death always comes too soon. The Creator of the universe lets us know that it is because He has put "eternity" in our hearts (Eccl 3:11). He also lovingly promises that one day humans will live forever on the earth as he originally intended (1 Cor 15:26; Psalm 37:29). Until then, do not hesitate to look to him to provide the comfort and strength you need to endure this difficult time (2 Cor 1:3,4; Isaiah 40:28,29). May the love of those around you and the precious memories shared also strengthen you at this time.
