As human beings we need to know that the order of creation is protected from the random assaults that strike from out of the blue. We seek out assurances that we will not be consumed by the chaos that seems to whirl around us without rhyme or reason. So we turn to the one who created the universe, we turn to God, who set the galaxies in the sky and the stars in motion. And we listen to him as he is revealed in the words of Jesus Christ, through whom he is fully revealed. Do not worry Jesus says.
Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes.
Consider the ravens he says. It s here that we find our greatest comfort. Our lives are NOT in our own hands. We are assured by the one who set the universe in motion that nothing can ever separate us from the love he has for us in Jesus Christ. And so we know that as Mrs. Beatty breathed her last, that she will have awakened, and suddenly everything will have become crystal clear, just like it used to be.
