It's not about believing in God!
What makes us Christian is not our belief in God - but our belief that God raised Jesus from the dead. If we don't believe in the resurrection, then our "faith" in God is "in vain".
All Souls Day is a poignant occasion for us to "check our faith". With Martha we really need to ask ourselves about the effect that the death of our loved ones has had upon our lives. Do we grieve like the pagans do (as St Paul warns us against)?
If we believe in resurrection our sadness is the invitation to believe. If we don't believe in the resurrection our sadness replaces our life.
So, what is it with you? Do you believe in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, eternal life, reunion in heaven forever? Or are you disappointed with the ultimate loss of life?
