Why pray for the dead?

Some people may ask you why do you pray for the dead?

The answer is simple.

Love!

Because we love them!

Love is stronger than death, Song of Songs 8:6

And not even death can separate us from them.

Our prayers for them,

Are our words of love that we whisper in God’s ear for them.

just as we loved them and prayed for them while they were on this earth,

We never stop doing it just because they died.

Death is not going to change that.

Nothing is going to ever change that!

And so through our prayers we continue to love them

For water cannot quench the fires of love;

Nor floods drown it. Song of Songs 8:7

For Love is stronger than even death.

And that is why we pray for those who have died.

Because we love them
