It Is...

This week, here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), I discussed my health problem that has arisen.

Being SONday, I will be heading to go worship with my church family.  Just as I normally do.

Worship is so important to me.  And, so is music... just as you know.

I want to let you know, that on August 26th, I awoke with feelings of various sorts.

A song/hymn was important to me that day.  And, I sang parts of it, over and over again.

It is by Hillsong and is entitled, It Is Well With My Soul.  Here is a link for you to listen and/or sing along:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv5V3bY6qlI.  The lyrics are below.

It Is Well With My Soul

When peace like a river
Attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot
You have taught me to say
It is well
It is well with my soul

But Lord it's for Thee
For Thy coming we wait
The sky not the grave is our goal
Oh trump of the angel
Oh voice of the Lord
Blessed hope
Blessed rest of my soul

It is well... with my soul
It is well
It is well with my soul

You are the Rock
On which I stand
By Your grace it is well
My hope is sure
In Christ my Saviour
It is well with my soul

It is well... with my soul
It is well
It is well with my soul

You are the Rock
On which I stand
By Your grace it is well
My hope is sure
In Christ my Saviour
It is well with my soul

You are the Rock
On which I stand
By Your grace it is well
My hope is sure
In Christ my Saviour
It is well with my soul

As someone who truly adores Christian music, I must let you know that even though that hymn is a very old one, most churches today seem to use the newer version, like this one I've shared with you, today.

Even so, I am grateful for the extra lyrics, that speak about Him.  For Jesus is my Saviour.  And, the Rock on which I stand.

Thinking about how we need to rely upon our Rock, made me think about Matthew 7:24, "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:"

As I said, Jesus Christ, is the Rock upon which we must stand.

He gives all who are trusting in/believing upon Him, everything we need to get through life.  Including... salvation.

It's by knowing this, that I can truly say... it is well with my soul.  Even if my life isn't going as well as I would like it.

For this, I praise my Lord.  And, always will!


Until next time...
