With a heavy heart, I offer this prayer...."Dear Father, I pray for the loved ones who have left this earthly world, that they will find everlasting peace in the heavenly kingdom which You promised. Lead them out of the valley of darkness and bring them into the light of Your presence. I also pray that one day, we will be reunited with them and dwell in Your house for eternity. Amen."
