When thinking of the loved ones who have passed on before us, thank GOD for the years we had them on this earth to love. Remember the words of 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (NIV) that say,
“Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have not hope. We believe that JESUS died and rose again and so we believe that GOD will bring with JESUS those who have fallen asleep in Him.”
So, let us rejoice knowing that when the believer passes away, we will see him/her again, if we accept JESUS CHRIST.
