To the Family, I am praying for you all. I love you and may God continue to bless you and give you peace.
To the family of Joshua, I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. Death is truly difficult for parents especially when at 20 years old, their child had their whole life ahead of them. Romans 6:7 says, “For the one who has died has been acquitted from his sin.” How is that? Verse 23 of that same chapter says, “For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord.” May you find comfort in God’s promises at this difficult time.
Hey aunt Rachel love y’all
Love y’all
