Often, I’ve wondered why God created our hearts and souls as two separate life supports and not one joined vessel. Maybe, tonight God delivered His answer.
It’s easy, almost automatic, to consider our hearts and souls are not only cut from the same fabric, but also, identical and serving the same purpose. However, God knew to create them separate; and this was not by accident nor without His wisdom.
Our hearts are love. Our souls are trust. Life’s happenings can break our hearts. Nothing of the world can crush or ever splinter our souls. Our hearts can fill with fear. Our souls are able, no matter what, to overflow with God’s courage and calmness. Hearts sometimes skip a thump. Souls never miss even one beat of God pulsing strength into their cores. Hearts can become hardened and angry in life’s storms. In trials and tribulations, souls reign in the soft gentleness of God’s arms and His peace.
So, why did God create our hearts and souls as two, not one? I believe it’s so that when our hearts break, fear, flutter, stiffen and rage, they can nose dive into our souls and be healed, reborn and resurrected into renewed awareness and trust in Faith, Hope, Love and God, Himself.
The world can bring crying pain to our hearts. God wipes away the tears in our souls. Thank you, JB3, for your baby heart delivering this God inspired message last night. And, deep gratitude to you, God, for filling the womb of his Mommy’s soul with Christ’s lifesaving blood running through its veins. Forevermore, “Praise God from whom all blessings flow”…
