Condolences

I wish to express my sincerest sympathy to you, Dawn and the Ousley family and friends because of losing Gregory recently in death, way too soon. When our loved ones fall asleep in death, the pain and grief seems unbearable. Our loving God, Jehovah (Psalm 83:18), understands how we feel and he comforts us by means of his Word. Psalm 34: 18 tells us: “Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Jehovah invites you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. (John 5:28, John 6:40, John 11:23-25, Acts 24:15, Job 14:14-15) For more comforting scriptures please visit: http://bit.ly/1K38EFt. It has given me hope, strengthened my faith and helped me find the answer to Why? I know it will do the same for you. John 17:3 I pray you will find comfort reading the above scriptures in your personal Bible. If you had the opportunity to see your dead loved ones again, alive and in perfect health, here on earth, would you take it? Of course, we all would. If so, please watch this short, faith strengthening video: “Can The Dead Really Live Again?” https://vimeo.com/248798432 I have you in my prayers during this very difficult time.
