Yesterday, I blogged about worry and
how I felt blessed because I didn't feel like I was worried about too
much.
And then, today, it hit me...in a way.
Although I'm not constantly worried
over this, I find that out of everything in my life, I seem to crave
it the most:
Stability.
I find myself thinking of my future
occupation, and relationships, and family (Lord willing). My time is
occupied with thoughts of sending children to college, buying a
house, creating a home that is both of place of rest and stability.
Growing up, stability was something I
always had. I knew that I was taken care of, and I never had to
worry about much.
Flash forward to my trip to Haiti, and
an experience meeting people who didn't know what stability felt
like. After seeing temporary homes and shelters, and watching
children grow up in this way, my heart craved for stability even
more.
I need to learn that there is stability
in Christ. And that no matter how much my world is rocked in this
life, I am rooted in something beyond myself and beyond my
understanding.
Worldly stability is something that I
crave, but Godly stability is something that I have through Jesus
Christ. I am learning to build a foundation in that stability so
that I can stand even if everything around me falls.
In Christ,
Lilia
