Summary

It’s time for the third part to the body, mind, and soul series. I kicked off this season working on my body. I’ve even lost 25 pounds. It’s not a fast pace, but I’m keeping at it. In the second section of the podcast it was all about the MIND. This was received really well. I wage a war with my mind every single day of my life. I've done a lot of prayer, listening, and counseling, so that I run my MIND now.

Sometimes people don’t like to talk about the soul, but the mind, body, and soul are all interconnected. We can’t improve one without improving the other. God made us with this body, soul, mind combination. To have one is to have them all. Maybe people shy away from talking about the soul, because they don’t want to talk about God. Maybe spirituality is too controversial. On this episode, I share some of the investigative work that I have put into the soul as we kick off this new part of the series.

Show Notes

  • [05:43] Some people believe in a trichotomous view. Which means we are made up of three parts body, mind, and soul. Others have a dichotomous view with only two parts meaning the inward and outward.
  • [06:50] Our soul is the spiritual part of our being. Inside of us there is Zoe. This is referring with the union we have with God.
  • [08:11] Our souls come from God. Maybe the issue no one wants to talk about is God.
  • [09:49] It doesn't make sense to not spend time on the thing that spiritually means life or death.
  • [10:00] Today, I'm going to share some investigative work I've been doing on the soul.
  • [10:27] You plus your money plus your job plus your status plus your friends plus the car you drive plus the private school your kids attend equal nothing.
  • [11:00] Y O U you equal everything.
  • [11:12] You are your soul, and your soul is you. The soul is about the slow unglamorous building of character.
  • [13:29] We are in a barren land when it comes to matters of the soul.
  • [14:29] Determine which of the three types of souls that you are.
  • [14:39] The hardened soul. Holding unforgiveness.
  • [15:08] The shallow soul. The time is about me.
  • [15:45] The cluttered soul. Too busy.
  • [16:18] Whatever you do is going to be out of your soul.
  • [16:59] Every good thing that flows into our life and every good thing that flows out of our life is directly related to our soul.
  • [17:34] Sin can wear the soul down and break it apart. It destroys every good thing about us.
  • [18:04] If you feel broken or lost, look at how you are living.
  • [18:36] We all long to have wounds healed.
  • [18:56] Spend the time and do the work to fix it. No matter how you have to, fix it.
  • [19:53] I want God's will to be fulfilled through my lifetime no matter how that may look.
  • [21:49] Our soul resides in each of us and determines our lives and our future.

So here we are the third teaching in the season two series of body, mind and soul.

1:01.0

Several months ago I did a short teaching on the body, what I wanted to do about mine, what

1:07.2

I'm attempting to do about mine, how I wanted to run mine over with a tractor at times. And then we had several interviews that fit well into this series or that particular train of thought on our bodies and I told you that I was attempting to gain some control of this thing that I feel I have no control over and I'm still dedicated to that work.

1:30.0

I've lost about 25 pounds since January and it's best described as coming off as slowly as my

1:36.9

kids move in the mornings. Trust me but I'm keeping at it. Okay? I'm also reading a really incredible book and doing the work that

1:45.2

goes along with that book because she asks you to do stuff that is excruciating, called

1:50.3

21 Lessons and Weight Loss by Marianne Williamson and she is kicking my butt but I want all

1:56.4

of this all of me all of Melissa to run at full potential right so we start with the body. And then I taught a lesson on the mind and this one was really received very well and you put it up on your Instagram and you shared it with your friends and you talked about it on Facebook.

2:15.0

And I'm going to tell you why I think this is.

2:17.0

I think it's because I learned several years ago, and this might not be true for everyone,

2:22.0

but it was most certainly true for me.

2:24.4

But I learned several years ago that my mind was going to kill me

2:28.7

way before my body ever would.

2:31.0

And I stand by that statement. Now maybe that isn't true for you. Maybe you can control your mind like some my Ninja some powerhouse. I hope you can. But for me, I waged a war with my mind every single day of my life.

2:47.0

Guys, it was exhausting.
