Based on lyrics by Eddiw Watkins, Jr., to “All Is Well”
Today I declare freedom from yesterday, mistakes of the past.
Today all things are made brand new. And it feels so good to know that all is well and unfolding as it should.
I can change my reality by changing my mind.
Perfect peace, joy and happiness is yours and it’s mine.
I am loved and so are you, and it feels so good to know that all is well, and unfolding as it should.
I am led by the Spirit, I am fed by love divine. I am one with all that is. My soul is free from time.
I am blessed and so are you, and it feels so good to know that all is well, and unfolding as it should. All is well and all is well and Divine Spirit is directing me right now.
All is well, all is well, all is well and unfolding as it should.

Isaac, son of Abraham, was surprised when the men of Gerar (rest stop) who had been quarreling over water rights at the wells of Esek and Sitnah (both mean “strife”) came to him. He said, “Why have you come to me, seeing that you have driven me away from you?’ They said, ‘We see plainly that the LORD has been with you; so we said, 'Let there now be an oath between us, even between you and us, and let us make a covenant with you, that you will do us no harm, just as we have not touched you and have done to you nothing but good and have sent you away in peace. You are now the blessed of the LORD.' Then he made them a feast, and they ate and drank. Early the next morning they exchanged oaths [promises to live in peace with one another]. Then Isaac bade them farewell, and they departed from him in peace. That same day Isaac’s servants came and brought him news about the well they and been digging; they told min,’We have reached water!’ They called it Shibah” [meaning rest, repose, stability) (Gen. 26:27-33).

“You shall celebrate the feast [of Tabernacles]. . . when you have gathered in the produce from your threshing floor . . . . You shall make merry at your feast. . . since the LORD, your God, has blessed you …in all you undertakings. . . . No one shall appear before the Lord empty-handed, but each of you with as much as he can give, in proportion to the blessings which the LORD, your God, has bestowed on you” (Deut.16:13-17); “The Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near. So [Jesus’] brothers said to him, . . . manifest yourself to the world . . . . When the feast was already half over, Jesus went up to the temple area and began to teach” (Jn.7:2-14).
