To the family and friends,
I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one.
When Jesus was on earth his friend Lazarus died. He was in the tomb for 4 days already when Jesus arrived. Mary and Martha, Lazarus’ sisters were grieving and Jesus gave way to tears. Jesus compared death to sleep. He called to Lazarus and Lazarus came back to life! You can read this wonderful true account in the Bible at John chapter 11. Jusus demonstrated what he will do for mankind when his kingdom government is ruling over all the earth. Our loved ones will come back to life! At time there will be no more pain or death (Revelation 21:3,4.)

I’m just so saddened to hear of Donnie’s passing. He has been a good friend of ours over the past couple years. I would see him often, and he would give me and my daughter a hug every time we saw him. He loved his children so very much, and the loss of his sons grieved him so deeply. The last thing she said to me, not more than a few weeks ago, was that he is heading in the right direction, that he is heading to the light. Indeed he was. I think it was a prophetic statement. And I believe he is in heaven in God’s arms now. Last year during the year of mercy I went through the Doors of Mercy twice, once for Calen and once for Dustin. I believe they are all in God’s merciful care. “Who loves you Donnie?!” 🙂 Please pray for me and Monica, dear friend!
