My deepest sympathies to the Featherstone family. I’m so sorry for your loss. The death of a loved one is a painful experience. Our Heavenly Father is well aware of the pain you’re feeling. He promises in His Word, the Bible, to remove death, pain, and suffering. (Revelation 21:3,4). Isaiah 25:8a says, ‘He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.’ We know that Almighty God has not only the power to remove death, but also yearns to do so. Until that time, may you find comfort in the resurrection hope, a promise that one day soon we will be reunited with our loved ones who have died. (John 5:28,29)
