Messages of Condolence
My heart goes out to Jeff’s family. This has to be a dark moment for your entire family having experienced the loss of so many dear ones before even having time to grieve for them. May you find some comfort, even a little, of knowing I stand ready with others to lend an ear if you feel you just need to vent, or cry, or sob, or even scream. Know you have many who care deeply and are ready and willing with their hand stretched out to give you love and support.
Revelation (Apocalypse) chapter 21 makes this promise: “and he (God) will wipe out every year from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither outcry or pain will be any more, the former things have passed away.”
That last line reminds us, when Almighty God says anything, it’s as good as done right then.
(Isaiah 55:8-11; Heb. 6:18)
Most sincerely,
Ann Flattes
