I wish to express my sympathy on your loss. Losing someone we love dearly, to death can be very painful. We are left with that empty feeling of grief. However, Jehovah God promises to eliminate death "He will swallow up death forever..." Isaiah 35:8 and bring back our loved ones by means of a resurrection "And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous" Acts 24:15 To find out more about how to cope with your grief please feel free to contact me or you may read the article in Awake #3 2018 on the website www.jw.org.

My sincerest condolences continue to go out to you and your family in your season of grief. Losing a loved one is never easy. However, Almighty God, Jehovah continues to be the source of comfort and tender mercies in all our trials including death (2 Corinthians 1 3&4). One way that we can especially receive such comfort is through reminders of God's unending love as found in his Word, the Bible. Whilst on earth, Jesus Christ himself performed miracles where he resurrected persons back to life. Noteworthy is the example of Lazarus, the brother of Martha and Mary and dear friend of Jesus (John 11: 1&2; Luke 10:38-42). Lazarus died before Jesus arrived at his home and no doubt Mary and Martha were deeply grieved. Even Jesus himself "gave way to tears" at the passing of his dear friend whom he visited often Jesus however, when speaking to Martha took the occasion to stress the resurrection (John 11:23-27). After calling in prayer to his Heavenly Father,and asking for the stone to be rolled away from Lazarus' tomb, Jesus showed before the crowd gathered a most astonishing, comforting and promising event!. JESUS CALLED THE DEAD MAN LAZARUS WHO HAD BEEN DEAD FOR 4 DAYS, TO COME OUT FROM THE TOMB FROM WHICH HE WAS BURIED (John 11:4 41,42). This miracle of Lazarus' resurrection illustrates the power of Jesus and increase faith in him and the resurrection which would soon occur on an even grander scale. Billions including Mr. Sirjusingh have the hope of this promise to be returned to life on a paradise earth where there will be no more pain, suffering nor death. This video link at www.jw.org is ever so encouraging in reinforcing this wonderful gift to all of mankind. https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/VODBibleTeachings/pub-jwbcov_201405_5_VIDEO Again, please accept my condolences and may you find comfort from these wonderful scriptures

“Praised be…. the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials.” These words are found in the Bible at 2 Corinthians 1:3, 4. May you find comfort from words found in the Scriptures, prayers and support from dear friends and relatives. All these are gifts from God. He has also promised to bring back the dead to life.
