Spirit, Soul and Body - The Soul

Our soul is the part of us that includes our mind, our will and our emotions. It gives us personality and character. Salavation is an instant awakening of our spirits but, our souls need to work out our salvation daily. 

"Do not conform to the patter of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will" (Romans 12:2)

We are transformed by the renewing of our minds. Our thinking, feelings and decisions should reflect our nature in Christ. Jesus came to bring healing to our emotions. He heals the broken hearted, he brings comfort to those who mourn, he provided for those who are lost. The Holy Spirit also helps our souls by bringing His character to operate in us. The Holy Spirit brings gifts to our life. He brings love, joy peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control (Galatians 5:22-23). He speaks to our soul and helps us to become the character God created us to be. 

Thankful for: Colour

Strange thing to be thankful for, but imagine a world without colour. A world in black and white only, it would be a little dull I imagine. So I'm thankful for the colours that God created when He created the world.
