Our Hope in Death

Lord Jesus, thank You for the enduring hope my family has in You, both in life and in death. Guide me and my spouse to be ready to respond to any doubts, fears, and questions our children may have, especially when they hear about the passing of loved ones. May we confidently encourage our children about the glorious reality awaiting us, regardless of whether we fall asleep in You first or we are alive at Your coming. Help us find comfort and strength in the knowledge that we will be with You forever.
