Message from Diane Chiasson July 25, 2016

Il n'y a pas d'évènement plus triste ou plus injuste que celui de perdre un être cher dans la mort. Notre Père céleste sait combien une telle perte est éprouvante puisqu'il a lui-même perdu son propre fils dans la mort. Psaumes 34 :18 nous dit que Dieu est près de ceux qui ont le coeur brisé. Mais rien n'est plus réassurant que la promesse qu'il nous a donner en Jean 5 :28,29 où l'on retrouve la certitude que Dieu va bientôt ramener à la vie tous ceux que nous avons perdus dans la mort et ce grâce à la résurrection. Puissent ces paroles de notre Père céleste vous apporter un peu de réconfort dans ce moment si difficile. Sincères condoléances.
