So many times we hear the pain associated with the loss of a loved one to be filled with so much dread and anxiety in respects to why, how, and where are their loved one headed after death.  However, I find so much peace and comfort from the scriptures as it allows us to peer into the truth in respects to the condition of the dead.  Our love one is as in a deep sleep - away from any more pain and sorrow; they are not burning in agony or suffering in so far remote no-where.  (Eccl 9:5).

Our Heavenly Father has given us all a future hope of being reunited with our loved one when the pain and suffering of today will be a thing of the past according to Revelation 21:3,4.  There will in the near future a resurrection at the hand of our Heavenly Father - Acts 24:15.
