Psalm 119:165 "There is such great peace and well-being that comes to the lovers of Your word, and they will never be offended." (The Passion Translation)
One of my favorite hymns is "It is Well with My Soul". Sometimes, it brings great comfort to my heart. At other times, it is a great reminder that even though times are rough, it can still be "well with my soul". Not because of anything I have done, but because of God - His character and His Name.
In the midst of turmoil, He is Jehovah Shalom, my Prince of Peace...It is Well.
When the bills are due, He is my Jehovah Jireh, my Provider...It is Well.
When I am weak, He is Elohim, all-powerful one...It is Well.
When I feel unseen, He is El Roi, the God who sees...It is Well.
No matter what you are dealing with God is right there with you, Immanuel. He loves you forever and always! It is Well with My Soul! Is it well with your soul?

Kate posts a single word each week and each blogger sets a timer for 5 minutes to write and then posts, with very little editing. (Some weeks I have more trouble with that part than others) Check out the other writers this week!
