Joy in the Journey

The beloved hymn “It is Well With My Soul” bears this precious verse: “Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say, It is well, it is well, with my soul.”

In good times and bad the feelings that emanate when one might sing that line will change as with the seasons. If our walk with Christ is meant to ensure that we can find His peace and presence in any situation, what does that really look like?

We asked a few readers from around the world to write about what it means to find joy in whatever journey we are on, what it means to truly be able to sing the words of that hymn and mean it. We pray you will find new perspectives and new reasons to strengthen your sense of hope from what they have shared.—Editors.
