The goal is soul

a verse or two

"Your eyes are windows into your body....” Matthew 6:22

Spiritual Walk and Musings: The goal is soul:

They say the eyes are the window into the soul. To add to that I wonder if the tongue is the soulometer? It would seem that when the soul is disturbed, when we are under pressure (say things go wrong), it affects the very core of our being till our soul starts to feel crushed and suddenly our tongue unleashes a volley of whatever – and so the old soulometer indicates we need to feed the soul. An awareness of our soulometer is a healthy thing.

In a world that says “I” ought to be the goal. I would beg to differ, in life the goal is soul. The soul is different to “I”. “I” is individualistic, it is self absorbed, and self obsessed. On the other hand, a healthy soul is connected to the “other”, as well as the “I”, as well as the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Feed the soul, and when the soulometer indicates the soul needs feeding – feed it some more.

God Bless

To Ponder and Pray: Verse 1 of “Be Still My Soul” by Katharina Von Schlegel 1752

Be still, my soul: the Lord is on thy side.
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain.
Leave to your God to order and provide;
In every change, he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul:
your best, your heavenly Friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
