Psalm 63:1-2

O God, You are my God;
Early will I seek You;
My soul thirsts for You;
My flesh longs for You
In a dry and thirsty land
Where there is no water.
So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory.

Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Most people have heard the song, It Is Well With My Soul,
by Horatio Spafford, but many have not heard the incredible
circumstances under which the song was written.

Mr. Spafford and his wife, devout Christians, had five
children, a son and four daughters. The son died of pneumonia
while still a small child. Four months later Mr. Spafford
lost all his lakefront property in the famed Great Chicago
Fire.

Shortly thereafter, to help in the healing process, the
family planned a trip to Europe to visit their friend,
D.L. Moody who was holding a huge revival there. Because of
last minute, unavoidable business involving his destroyed
property, Mr. Spafford sent his wife and four daughters on
to London ahead of him, planning to follow a few days later.

During the voyage, their ship collided in the fog with
another and went down in twelve minutes. His wife sent him
a telegram from London with these two words: "Saved Alone."

Can you imagine the magnitude of this loss? On the voyage
to join his wife in London, Mr. Spafford asked the shipmaster
to inform him of the spot where the other ship had gone down.
It was while looking out over the water where his daughters
had died, in an agony of sorrow, that the words to the song
came to him, "It is well, with my soul."

There is no loss too great for us to bear as long as we have
the hope and comfort of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

God Bless You!

--FEATURED POEM:

When peace like a river attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll,
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
"It is well, it is well, with my soul."

My sin - O the bliss of this glorious thought!-
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend;
"Even so" it is well with my soul.

It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Horatio G. Spafford, 1873

--ANSWER TO TRIVIA QUESTION:

Q. In the old law, which insects were allowed for eating?

A. locusts, crickets, and grasshoppers


All flying insects that creep on all fours shall be
an abomination to you. Yet these you may eat... the locust
after its kind, the destroying locust after its kind, the
cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.
But all other flying insects which have four feet shall be
an abomination to you.


Leviticus 11:20-23

Remember John the Baptist, most certainly devout in his
faith, and what he ate! People of many cultures still eat
locusts and grasshoppers.
