I want to send you Ramoleen, and all of your children my sincere condolences in the loss of your husband and their father Allan. When we loss a loved ones at times we are told that God takes our loved ones.We can benefit confident that God does not cause suffering and take our loved ones. James 1:13 says: “When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.” For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone.” That can provide us much comfort.Jehovah promises a time when sickness will be no more. Isaiah 33:24a says: “And no resident will say: I am sick.” That is a time we can look forward too. Jehovah also holds out the beautiful resurrection hope for those who have fallen asleep in death. John 5:28,29a says: “Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice, and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life.” It’s comforting to know that we can have the hope of seeing our loved ones again!
Sincerely,
India

I love you Grandpa rest in peace.
