THROUGH IT ALL

December 6, 2014

ENCOURAGEMENT / MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

I sat in passenger’s seat with tears flowing down my face faster than I could catch them. I had just left the clinic where my doctor had read me the results from my MRI, “Kim, it looks like you have Multiple Sclerosis.”

I looked over at Clark and in a shaky voice I said to him, “I can curse God and get mad at Him that I have this disease, or I can worship Him anyway because He deserves it.” I leaned over and turned on the song It Is Well by Bethel Music. “I’m going to worship.”

There have been many moments over the past few months that I’ve felt scared, and in many moments of weakness I’ve put this song on repeat and played it over and over until the words sank in. When I’ve had a hard day I rest my phone next to my pillow and fall asleep to it, and when I’ve had a rough night, I listen to it as I put on my makeup in the morning. I let the words play over and over, “Through it all my eyes are on you. Through it all it is well.”

In every season of life we have a choice. We get to choose how we want to handle the things that are thrown at us. We get to be angry, hopeful, bitter, or at peace. We get to choose.

I choose daily to keep my eyes on Him and let Him take care of my soul.

In everything, my eyes are on You.
