Our Soul: An Eternal Alignment

Did you know that within every one of us there is a part of our making that is eternal, which is called our soul. If you think about it, our soul, since it's eternal, is part of the spiritual world around us. It's alive and very involved with the other eternal powers that are within this world.

When I mention "eternal powers," I mean either the power of Love or the power of Hate. Both of these forces influence the world, and its events and people. Love is a blanket term that represents whatever is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable (Philippians 4:8). In short, love is God. Hate, on the other hand, is a blanket term that stands for whatever is fallen from God: deceit, betrayal, revenge, envy, ect.

Throughout our lives, we choose which side we want to align ourselves with. We can either focus on Love and live our lives seeking God or we can choose to live a fallen life. A fallen life is any life that has rejected or ignored Jesus' grace and redemption, which He offers to us freely. Through either choice, our soul becomes a part of something eternal. We just have to ask ourselves: what do we want our lives to be centered around? What story are we a part of?
