Broken: In Christ Alone

Wow, it's funny how quickly things change.  Today I have been broken.  I found out a week ago that I'm going to South Africa! It's so exciting, but since then I feel I've been frozen.  I don't really know what I mean when I say that, I guess I've been stagnant.  And indifferent as well.  Not about S. Africa, I'm quite excited about that actually. But about life, school, spiritual things, etc.  This is BAD.  I broke down today over it, and knew it was the Lord.  

I have just been so "blah," just floating along.  Not really going anywhere.  Stressed and very anxious about things that I should not be stressed or anxious about, caused me to forget Christ.  Yet, it is in HIM alone that I stand.  or can stand.   And so, I just want to tell you, my friends and family that this has been a hard but good day.  Please pray for more of it.  Also for diligence, discipline, discernment, and humility in my life.  

"In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm"
