Condolence: I was sad to read of Myrtle’s death, and even though I didn’t know her personally, she was obviously someone who was loved and will be missed. At times of loss we all need to be comforted. Something that has helped me deal with the loss of a loved one is expressed in the Bible book of Romans, chapter 15, verse 4: “For all the things that were written aforetime were written for our instruction, that through our endurance and through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope”
The “comfort from the Scriptures” include the promise of resurrection. This can be found in Jesus words, recorded at John 5:28,29 where it 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…”

What a wonderful time it will be when we can be reunited with our loved ones, like Myrtle, when they answer the Lord’s call. I hope these verses were of some comfort to you.

May God bless you and help you through this difficult time.

Sincerely,
David

Condolence: The death of a loved one can be a very challenging time for everyone in the family. Coping with a loss is difficult and at times overwhelming. For many Gods word is a source of encouragement. While I dont know your family I have experienced losing a loved one in death and relying on the hope the Bible offers has helped. For instance Phillipians 4:13 gives us the strength to continue enduring. We also have the hope of the resurrection found at John 5:28,29.
I sincerely hope that these scriptures help you in your times of sorrow.
