My condolences to the Brown family and friends. It is a painful thing to lose a precious love one in death, regardless of how long they have lived. Even Jesus wept when Lazarus died at John chapter 11 verse 35 and it pains our loving Heavenly Father, too. He did not purpose his human family to grow old and die but purpose us to live and enjoy life. It is still his purpose, shown at Psalms chapter 37 verses 11and 29. He calls death an enemy that will be removed forever, shown at 1 Corinthians chapter 15 verse 26 and Isaiah chapter 25 verse 8. He promised to awaken our love ones in the memorial tombs from asleep in death at Hosea chapter 13 verse 14 says that From the power of the Grave our Creator will redeem them and from death he will recover them. The Bible says that our Creator will then reverse the aging process shown at Job chapter 33 verses 24 and 25. It says that one's flesh will become fresher than in youth. One will return to the days of his youthful vigor. What a delight it will be to see them again to enjoy life as our Creator purposed shown at Psalms chapter 145 verse 16. Allow these words to keep comforting all of you.
