I just don’t understand!

It seems like every time you turn around, someone has cancer. It hurts my heart when I hear about another person who is battling this ugly disease. It’s such a terrible illness. My friend back home, Linda, her mom died of breast cancer several years ago. I remember walking in the hospital room to see Linda and there lay her mom. She looked like a skeleton. I had grown up around this woman and I did not recognize her at all. In fact, I thought I was in the wrong room. Cancer is no respector of persons. The elderly get it, the middle-aged get it and even children get it. No one knows how we get it. Is it in food we are eating? Is it in our soda’s? Is it in our water? People who have never touch carcinogens get it. It’s a mystery! One day we will know, though. Today, I got a little bit of a different perspective of it. Is cancer around to make us long for our new body, our home in Glory? Maybe so……
