How did Jesus feel about losing his friend? The account tells that Jesus joined Lazarus' relatives and friends were grieved over this loss. Seeing them, Jesus was deeply moved. He groaned within himself and become trouble."Then, the account says, "Jesus gave way to tears." [John 11:33,35] Did Jesus' grief mean that he had no hope? Not at all. In fact, Jesus knew that something wonderful was about to happen.[John 11:3,4] Still, he felt the pain and sorrow that death bring. In a way, Jesus' grief is encouraging to us. It teaches us that Jesus and his Father, Jehovah, hate death. But Jehovah God is able to fight and overcome that enemy!

I just wanted to leave my condolences and a comforting scripture. John 5:28 reads- '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." This speaks of a resurrection of our dead loved ones. I know you don't know me but you and the family will be in my prayers.
When you have a chance, please visit JW.org for more comforting information.

From the Clarksville 3 (Matt, Lisa and Britta):
Love you Dad.
Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I, and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you
For an interval
Somewhere very near,
Just around the corner.
All is well.
- Henry Scott Holland
