It Is Well

The enemy has decided in the last few weeks to really wage a war against my soul. Not just my soul, but specifically my emotions. He has sent people to hurt my feelings and made me super sensitive. He has caused difficult times to rise up and crash over me, but it is well. He has caused struggles, and hardships that I never expected... but.... it is well with my soul.

As I sat down today to write a devotional for Great News, I got about half way through it and the "It Is Well" by Bethel Church came into my ears. What a reminder I needed this morning. There is no sense in me going on this morning about the issues that have risen in my life and walk. There is zero reason for me to share the struggles, heartaches, or more prominently the hurt feelings with you. They are not worth sharing because that would be what the enemy would want me to do. Complain. I am not going to have a complaining spirit today. Instead, I choose to say through it all, it is well with my soul. I have the victory in Christ Jesus (and by the way so do you) and no matter what the enemy does to overtake me, even if I lose the battle, I know that because of the cross, I have already won the war. Therefore.... It is well with my soul.

From one Christian to another today, I want to ask  you... is it well with your soul? Is your faith wholly in Christ? Is there something that you need to lay at His feet so that it can be well with your soul? Then do it. He is waiting. He is your Father, your Daddy, and it is time. Give your worries to Him and He will give you rest and peace that surpasses all understanding.

Below I am going to post the song I mentioned above. I want to ask, if you would, please sit down, pop some headphones in and really let the Lord speak to your heart through this beautiful song. I love you friend:)
