Sadness.

Unfortunately this what I feel.
I'm sitting in church right now. Immanuel Baptist Church in downtown Sacramento.
My close friends in this church recently lost their mother to cancer.
She was an angel among men. One of those people that, in our stupid and puny human opinion, was not supposed to get cancer. Didn't deserve cancer.
But that's a huge part of our belief. Understanding that God's really got everything under his control. And you really have nothing under control. Not even what sickness comes over you.
Life, I've learned recently, is incredibly fragile.
It is a thin slice of glass that we're standing on.
The longer we stand, the longer we think it'll hold.
The longer it holds, the more we forget that it's made out of glass.
