Whatever my lot ... even so ...

Carmelina has posted today at the EQUIP book club on the hymn It Is Well With My Soul, and how it reflects the truths we find in Esther. (You can gloss over the reference to yours truly, because I do have those bad days, and have much I need to learn from Esther and elsewhere.)

If you're anything like me, you can read blog posts like this one, or the bible passages mentioned, and sort of go "yeah, I know all that" in your head, but all the while you keep on being mad or miserable or anxious, and so how to ensure that it really, truly, does change the way you think about your circumstances, the way you act and the way you speak is the thing ...

(I really enjoyed listening to the two youtube links she gave too!)
