We are made in the image of God. When we break the commandments or live by society's morals rather than those set forth by God, we move further from his image; hence, further from God. To feel close to God is the greatest gift to be found in this world and the greatest and, sometimes, only true comfort. I know he was close to me when I was on a ventilator for 12 days and overheard nurses saying they didn't think I would make it. God felt very close and, while I did not like the ventilator, I was not fearful.
