Mi más sentido pésame para la familia Téllez, la pérdida de un ser querido pudiera ser la experiencia más triste que uno puede generen la vida, pero gracias a nuestro amoroso padre celestial y a su hijo Jesucristo, esa separación es sólo temporal ya que la Biblia muestra que nuestros seres queridos que han muerto serán resucitados y tendrán la perspectiva de vivir para siempre aquí en la tierra, en el evangelio de Juan 6:40 se registran estas palabras de Jesús: Porque esta es la voluntad de mi Padre: que todo el que contempla al Hijo y ejerce fe en él tenga vida eterna, y yo lo resucitaré en el último día. Y Salmos 37:29 dice: Los justos mismos poseerán la tierra, y residirán para siempre sobre ella.
Espero sinceramente que él meditar en estas maravillosas promesas les de consuelo y esperanza.
Sinceramente,
