My condolences to the family. I can only imagine how you are hurting now and how deep your sorrow must be as you think of Luther with love and respect. I want you to know how sorry I am for your loss. May you find comfort in God's promise to reunite us with our dead loved ones. His purpose is to undo death by means of the resurrection. "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." (John 5:28,29) Revelation 21:3,4 contains this hope inspiring promise: "The tent of God is with mankind and he will reside with them and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore." May this heartwarming promise give you comfort and strength at this difficult time.
