My mom very suddenly died of septicemia on March 22, 2008. There was no warning of an illness, and my family and I never got to say goodbye, which has made the grieving process that much more difficult. My mom was the most beautiful person, inside and out, that I will ever know. I miss her more everyday.

How did Jesus feel about losing his friend? The account tells us that Jesus joined Lazarus’ relatives and friends as they grieved over this loss. Seeing them, Jesus was deeply moved. He “groaned in the spirit and became troubled.” 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 brings.
In a way, Jesus’ grief is encouraging to us. It teaches us that Jesus and his Father, Jehovah, hate death. The Bible’s resurrection accounts teach us much about the resurrection to come. People who were restored to life right here on earth were reunited with their loved ones. Thus the Bible gives us a clear promise and a solid hope that by means of the resurrection, many will see their loved ones again here on earth but under very different circumstances.—2 Peter 3:13; Revelation 21:1-4. Please take the time to read the scriptures with your Bible.
I will be thinking about you and will write again. Take care and when you can, rejoice in the wonderful memories of your mother.
take care and no matter what.... never forget the love that was given to you.
