Where Is Mary now? One evening, Sarah, her Papa, and Grandma watched The Star, an animated movie about the birth of Jesus. Sarah liked Mary, the mother of Jesus, most of all. After the movie, she asked her Grandma, "Where is Mary now?" When Grandma said, "I believe she's in heaven," Sarah was very sad. Sarah's daddy had died not long ago, and everyone said he was in heaven. She didn't want him or Mary to be in heaven-she wanted them to be here. Later, Sarah asked Grandma, "Why does God let people die?" Grandma got out a Bible storybook and told her, "Death wasn't God's idea." She told Sarah why people die and about the wonderful place that Jesus prepared for us if we receive Him and live for Him. Sarah still missed her daddy, but she was happy to know that he was in a wonderful place that Jesus had prepared, where she could go to be with them someday.
