It Is Well

Day 21: Bold in the Soul ~ Revelation Wellness - Healthy & Whole

No matter what happens in this life...it IS well with my soul!

~ It is Well with my Soul ~
by: Horatio Spafford

When peace like a river attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea-billows roll,
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to know;
It is well, it is well with my soul.

It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul

Tho' Satan should buffet, tho' trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed his own blood for my soul.

It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul

My sin - oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin - not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to His cross and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, oh my soul.

It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul

And, Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend
A song in the night, oh my soul!

It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul

Faith

Day 20: Bold in the Soul ~ Revelation Wellness - Healthy & Whole

FAITH ~
complete trust or confidence in someone or something.
belief in the existence of God

Faith is complete trust. In the natural, that is hard to even think about comprehending. But in the Spirit...it's totally understandable. There have been so many times in my life that FAITH is the only thing that got me through. Believing and knowing that GOD could and would get me through!

In 4 days, it will be 4 years since a devastating injury that I still deal with daily. Some days can be really difficult. My flesh still asks, "WHY? Will I ever be healed?" Yet in my Spirit, I know that I already AM healed! The doctor wasn't sure I'd have an arm...most less be able to use it again. But I can and I do.

What about faith? I have FAITH that I will be whole and complete again. Will it be here on earth? I do think so...but only God knows. What I DO know is that through FAITH...I have been able to keep going when I didn't want to or feel as though I could. I have been able to reach out to others to give them hope. I have been able to use this injury of mine to inspire others...to shine my light as bright as I can for Jesus!

THAT is what it's all about! Not just believing or hoping...but TRUSTING God and KNOWING that He will work things out when the time is right! Until then...KEEP THE FAITH! I have found that the greater the faith I have...the more peace and joy I have in my life. Storms and trials aren't fun, by any means...but having FAITH and having GOD...it makes it all worth it!

PS...when those prayers are answered...we always look back and see things differently than when we were in the storm!

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

Hope

Day 19: Bold in the Soul ~ Revelation Wellness - Healthy & Whole

HOPE ~
a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen
a feeling of trust

In a world & life where I have never truly trusted anyone, including myself...when I gave my life to God, I found that trust and I found a hope that I never had. Even when my plans go wrong and things don't work out...I remember that GOD has plans for me. His plans are MUCH greater than my plans and HIS plans are always best.

He plans to give me HOPE and a FUTURE! To give me a prosperous life...in MANY different ways.

The hope that I know have in my heart and soul is what gets me through each day. In a world that is filled with chaos and anger...God gives me HOPE for the future. No matter what happens in this world and this life...I know WHOSE I am...and I know WHERE I am headed!

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
