In every life there are pinnacle moments
when God smiles upon us
and all is good
For balance sake perhaps
there are seasons of storms that
rock the boat that once sailed
so smoothly and lulled us
into believing that He had wrapped
us securely in a cocoon of contentment
This cocoon is a mirage
Mr. Spafford reminds us all that
there’s a little golden nugget
planted in each and every soul
Surely, he was sailing through another day
looking forward to a family vacation across the pond
when the pond erupted like a volcano
The fact that he faced this storm
and then wrote the song It is well with my soul
makes one believe this golden nugget
is as bright and mighty as the sun.
