Its a Soul Thing

It’s a Soul Thing

I just finished sending a tweet out about a great restaurant in Nashville. Before that I was filming a webisode video segment to promote The Miracle Tour. Earlier today, I was on-line at a coffee house reviewing some other video network’s productions and reviewing some writing drafts on their wi-fi. My days has been inundated with technology and conversations about the meaning and application of media.

Although I love all of these options, at the end of the day I felt depleted. My mental hard drive was full and by emotional downloads had taken a lot out of me through consultations. No matter how passionate I feel about these things, I am a finite being. My tank was empty and I had the need for in-put of my own.

We are not purely intellectual beings. We are primarily spiritual beings encased with a highly fragile wrapper. The best way I can describe how and what our society does to me sometimes, is as a sort of sunburn to my soul. Way too much glaring light can cause damage. Someone close the blinds and shut the sunroof for awhile, please!

When the Bible says “He restoreth my soul,” I am beginning to get this concept. When I pull away from the world and spend some time decluttering and defragmenting my heart and mind, I find peace. It is absolutely essential to just be in His presence and soak in the peace He brings.

Our souls are vulnerable. Too much current and we short out and become without value, unable to walk out our divine design.

Mark 8:36 What profits a man if he gains the whole world, but forfeits his soul?
