Thoughts from George Jackson III
November 3, 2009

Dear Family, while reading I saw the name of Raymond, your dear loved one. I understand well the pain that this time can cause, so I wanted to take this time to express my condolence to you for your loss. I know that a time like this is never easy to deal with. If fact it causes only grief. That's why the scriptures at (1 Corth. 15:26)--Calls death an " Enemy" to mankind because it takes our loved ones away from us. However I wanted to share a thought with you that comforted me when I lost two family members in death. The man Job in ( Job 14:14) asks" If an able-bodied man dies can he live again?". Happily Jesus answers in ( John 5:28,29)-" 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, those who did good things to a resurrection of life" Imagine the joy it will be to see our loved ones resurrected back to life and right here on earth.--( Ps.37:29)-“The righteous themselves will posses the earth. And they will reside forever upon it”. Jesus in ( John 5:28) was relaying a promise from his heavenly Father-(Jehovah-(Ps.83:18) who at (Titus 1:2) says is a " God who can not lie" Well I hope that you will be able to draw some comfort from these scriptural thoughts as I did. Now I will end by saying, may you find peace in the bible's promises and in the treasured memories of your dear loved one.
