To the Rice Family: you have my deepest sympathy, for the loss of your loved one. We are never prepared for death, no matter how we try to do so, but we really thank God for his promise at Revelation 21:4 where He promises that death and pain will be done away with. At Acts 24:15, God promises that we will see our love ones again by means of a resurrection to live on a Paradise earth according to his original purpose for man. (Psalm 37:11; Micah 4:3,4) To learn more about this Paradise on earth, type the following link into your browser and read it along with your Bible: tinyurl.com/jyp4yl4.
