Death is a morose subject, but since it is inevitable we will all eventually deal with it in some way. We may strive to avoid it, but death runs faster and longer than we do and will eventually catch us. It's why we can gain confidence when we hear Jesus say that He is the resurrection and the life. Death may find us, but it will not hold us when we are Christ followers. He assures us that our commitment to Him will allow Christ's sacrifice to cover for our sins and bring us life forever with Him. It instills a sense of peace in us to know that God has our eternity planned.
This isn't just about seeing people we love again or having a good time in heaven--it's about recognizing that we need something only God can give us. He is the One that makes everything right again.
