Emotional hits

Let's just say this post cannot be too detailed because what has happened  is to personal to say. It is so personal it may not be best to broad cast. My brother has had an emotional hit. It's leaving us all to wonder why this is all happening. Where is god and why isn't he watching our hour glass to tip it back over when the sand runs out? Because this is what it feels like, the sand is slipping our fingers and no matter how hard we try to keep it in our hands, there are too many cracks for it to slip through. Please god can you just rest the hour glass on its side for now? I'd really appreciate it.
