Death

It's been a rough few days. A friend of Mine (Matt Truesdale) died in a car crash. I sang at his funeral Tuesday. He was 27 - my age. His parents were really thankful that I came, but it was hard. So many of his friends were there, and they all just looked shell shocked. 27 year olds usually aren't that used to attending funerals, I guess.
 
Tuesday and Wednesday I visited Bram & Anita, and that was really hard too, because Bram's dad has just passed away. He's obviously really broken up about it because they were really close.
 
Matt and Bram's dad are in a better place - I believe that. And I admire people whose faith keeps them smiling at times like this, but I find death hard. I've heard we'll be attending a lot of funerals in Zimbabwe... I guess we'll get more used to it. God is good.
