All is Well
Often, when I write to people, I tell them that I pray all is well with them. That is my way of saying that I hope they are experiencing God's blessings, so that they are not stressed and upset about the conditions of their lives. I believe that is always God's will for all of us, even when we are going through the trials of life. He is always with us, as we trust Him, so we always have what we need. Solomon was experiencing that state in his life as he became king. He was preparing to build the Temple, so he contacted King Hiram of Tyre to supply the cypress wood, which was the best quality wood for the job.(I Kings 5:4) He told Hiram that the Lord had given him peace on every side, he had no enemies, and all was well with him. I pray that all of us would be able to give this testimony to everyone we meet and give God all the glory. God wants all of us to live in constant peace. Peace is the state of mind and heart where we know that God is taking care of us and the details...
