Please run now to meet her and say to her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with you husband? Is it well with the child?" And she answered, "It is well." II Kings 4:26
Things had been very well for this woman from Shumen. She had helped the prophet Elisha, and she had been rewarded with prosperity and a son. Now her son had died, and she rode quickly to the prophet to appeal to him for help. When asked if all was well with her, her husband, and her child, she responded, "It is well." Apparently, her trust in the Lord made all things well no matter what her current circumstances. What a role model for us all. H.G. Spafford caught the spirit in his song, "It Is Well." Even is great loss, his thoughts were, it is well. Is it well with us today? It Is Well!
