Sorry for your loss

Behold, I shall say something to
comfort those who mourn,
it's about the saints who have passed away
since the world was formed.
Indeed, I care and know how you feel
about your step dad's death,
believe Me, I know about grief,
I once cried about it Myself.
But I have a word that shall
comfort your heart today;
it shall make you rejoice for
My sheep who have passed away.
Life has not ended for ,"Big Calvin,"
though he passed-on,
he is with Me forever in his new heavenly home!"
