Day Six
Today, let’s focus on how we connect our soul to God.
Let’s start by
BREATHING
Take three deep breaths and begin to settle you soul.
When you are ready,
INVITE GOD INTO THIS MOMENT.
Ask God to eliminate the noise and to speak to your body, mind and soul.
SLOWLY READ
Matt 16:24-26 (NLT)
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?”
Psalms 37:37-40 (The Message)
Keep your eye on the healthy soul, scrutinize the straight life;
There's a future in strenuous wholeness. But the willful will soon be discarded; insolent souls are on a dead-end street. The spacious, free life is from GOD, it's also protected and safe.
GOD-strengthened, we're delivered from evil—when we run to him, he saves us.
ASK GOD TO SPEAK
God, how often do I pay attention to the needs of my soul?
God, how is my soul connected to intimacy with you?
God, how do you want me to take care of my soul?
LISTEN
Embrace the silence and fight the urge to speak. Be in the presence of God and listen for his voice.
WRITE IT DOWN
Grab your journal to write down your thoughts and anything God is saying to you.
