(Psalm 46: 1) Our faith is rooted in the remembrance of the Christ who laid \u2018down his life for his friends\u2019. (John 15: 13) In turn, it is rooted in our receiving the good news of the Christ who \u2018was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures\u2019. (1 Corinthian 15: 4) In turn again, we come by faith to understand the death of Christ in the light of the resurrection and so comprehend that it was for us and for our salvation that he gave his life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a time of loss, we find no human words adequate to express the depth of that loss and we often find ourselves seemingly detached from the onward rush of time.
