Please accept my expression of sympathy for your loss. May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you. The Bible says this about God: "You are opening your hand and satisfying the desire of every living thing.” (Psalm 145:16). Seeing our dead loved ones again is one of those desires. Read for yourself how our loving Creator will fulfill that desire at Acts 24:15.
