My Life In A Nut Shell

It's only the start of the new year, and I already hate it. I feel like crap and I know that I only have myself to blame. I should have been a better example. Only two things could make me feel better right now. First is to go back to Hawaii and it's beauty. Second is to go back and re-live my experience at EFY '05. Since I can't have either, I'm listening to my EFY cd. Here are the lyrics to the song that is on repeat in my cd player right now.

I feel a chill when the shadows grow still
And I'm standing to close to the edge
With nothing to ground me, the world swirls around me
I'm lost in a mist of despair

I need to run to the light of the sun
Feel the warmth of its rays on my face
I need to walk with my feet on the Rock
And my heart lifted up in His grace

I will stand in the light
Look to the dawn as it breaks through the night
With courage and strength I will stand in my place
With the flame of my faith burning bright
I will stand in the light
Hold up the truth and stand for the right
I can reach so much higher
I'm filled with its fire when I stand
Stand in the light

Steady and still like a light on a hill
It shines for the whole world to see
Chasing the dark, washing over my heart
Changing what I want to be

I feel it grow, flooding into my soul
This river of truth flows through me
Filling me up with conviction enough
To live what I truly believe

I will stand in the light
Look to the dawn as it breaks through the night
With courage and strength I will stand in my place
With the flame of my faith burning bright
I will stand in the light
Hold up the truth and stand for the right
I can reach so much higher
I'm filled with its fire when I stand
Stand in the light
