God was right beside everyone, and is with them in grief. Because he is the God Who Knows all we feel and experience. [...]

She's is Catholic, and is trying to respond to this as a person of Faith. I'm not a Catholic, but I think you don't need to be Catholic to understand or appreciate some of the subtleties she is communicating.
