All Is Well

All is well
Lift up your voice and sing
Born is now Emmanuel
Born is our Lord and Savior
Sing Alleluia

I often wonder ... how do people get through hard times without faith?

I was raised being churched my entire life.  But going to church doesn't always make us faithful.  On the other hand, there are people full of faith who don't go to church at all.  I think I fall somewhere in between, but I lean more toward the ones who don't go to church.  I don't always agree with what an organized religion preaches. I'm not saying it's wrong, it just doesn't suit me.  But I have loads of faith, and belief in God.  There's a higher power, and we don't know His plan for us.

These lyrics are from a beautiful song.  When I sang in the choir at Bethel Church, every year we did a Christmas Pageant, this song would be sung by a young boy - a voice so pure you couldn't help believing the Christmas Story.

But no matter our circumstances, we still need to know that no matter what happens in our lives, no matter how bad things seem to be, it will all be ok.  We get through the toughest portions of life and hopefully learn from our situations.

But in the end, alleluia!
