Oh the waves they crash....
This endless sea of turbulence and trial seem to never end.....
It was Easter weekend....a time to rejoice in the new life Jesus has given me....yet I failed to lift my eyes from the troubles all around me....
A severe lack of sleep did not help....
5 days of nausea, dizziness and intestinal discomfort had put me in a weakened state as the weekend approached...
And yet...someone was whispering to me....
...like a lighthouse shines through the fog....I had just to look and listen.
Monday morning
I had heard a song in my dream....."It is well with my soul...."
....I woke to an answered prayer. She had slept through the night! It has been weeks....
Then I checked out the lyrics to the song that was in my dream....
...I wept as they filled every piece of the puzzle that is going on right now...
...I had begun to miss my old house and the comforts we had there....
...the quiet, familiar surroundings that I no longer felt....
...I was clinging to comfort and forgot I need to be clinging to Christ....
...oh, such a slow learner I am....
But today I say....."IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL"
