We would like to encourage you with these words Jesus said:" Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep..I am traveling there to awaken him"…The disciples said to him "Lord if he is sleeping,he will get well" Jesus had spoken about his death…" ( John 11:11-13 ) What this shows us is God and his Son likens death to sleep! It is just a matter of them awakening our loved ones up. How encouraging! So very sorry for your loss.
