John Paul II Rest in Peace

[Hans Delbrook]

You were a good and holy man, courageous and steadfast. Any disagreements I had w/ you are minor compared to the pain and sadness I feel at your loss.

May you be safe w/ God our Holy Father this day.

I'm sorry for your loss. As a Jew, I can't imagine the significance to you, but I know the loss is profound.

5. "Let not your hearts be troubled..."

"Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me...."

John 14: 1-6
