No one lives forever in the mortal form. Looking back from our
position in eternity will it really matter what the cause of our
mortal death, or the timing was? It's our eternal existence that is
significant.

The primary purpose of our brief existence here in a mortal body is to
learn about sin and rebellion. We learn by being directly involved and
we learn by observation in those events with which we were not
directly involved. We are expected to learn enough about sin and
rebellion to assure God that none of us will ever want to go back and
explore it any further, once we've been granted immortality and
absolute sovereignty.
