It Is Well With My Soul

The fires in West Texas this weekend were horrible to watch on TV. Over 80,000 acres burned and the fire was 0% contained at one point Saturday night. On Sunday night there was a bunch of wet stuff falling out of the air. I still haven’t identified what it is.

The government almost shut down last week. I think it would be great if we could lay off Congress for a year. The whole uproar about all the bad things that “could” happen with the government shut down was a bunching of meaningless murmuring to me as I reflect on school teachers being laid off and children potentially losing educational opportunities.

I have 0% faith in our current government. There isn’t a politician I trust and you can’t sustain a country with trillions of dollars in debt. Someone will have to pay and I believe it will be our enemies picking up the tab as they take over a country that was founded on principles and sacrifices that our current legislators have forsaken.

They sang this song at the funeral of 14 year-old Travis Sitzman last week and I thought it a perfect hymn to sing during such a time when what has happened cannot be understood. I want to live a life so wrapped up in God that whatever happens, good or bad, understood or confusing, it will be well with my soul.

Grace and peace to you.
