You are greatly mistaken.
"Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and put this question to him, saying,
“Teacher, Moses wrote for us, If someone’s brother dies, leaving a wife but no child, his brother must take the wife and raise up descendants for his brother.
"Now there were seven brothers. The first married a woman and died, leaving no descendants. So the second brother married her and died, leaving no descendants, and the third likewise. And the seven left no descendants.
"Last of all the woman also died. At the resurrection when they arise whose wife will she be? For all seven had been married to her.”
"Jesus said to them, “Are you not misled because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? When they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like the angels in heaven.
"As for the dead being raised, have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God told him, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
"He is not God of the dead but of the living. You are greatly misled.” (Mark 12: 18 - 27).

Do you believe in the Resurrection of the dead?
Our God is not "God of the dead but of the living."
We Catholics believe in the Communion of the Saints. The saints are very alive. We cannot see them but you can touch them with your prayers. They touch us with their answers to our prayers. This is real.
Think of St Anthony of Padua, Patron Saint of lost items:
St Joseph, Patron Saint of a Happy Death.
God is a living God of a living people.
All things are possible for God.
All things are easy for God.
I trust in the Lord with all my heart. I lean not on my own understanding, experience, knowledge, perception or ideas. In everything I do, I acknowledge Him and He promises to direct my path.
June is the month of honoring the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
