“Most of us walk around not realising that we have a soul. We have heard about it, but we don’t really know fully what it is and does it really matter?
“Your soul is the very essence of who you are. It is what makes you, you – a unique essence to everybody else.
“We are all different in one way or another. Physically we have much the same characteristics – one head, two arms, a trunk and two legs.
“But the soul is different and it is the thinking part of you. What makes you tick. What makes you unique to everybody else.
“It is made up of life’s experiences, the highs and lows of life - the wisdom we have obtained from life and also a passion that is within us, which is that special part connected to ‘God’.
“‘God’s’ essence of goodness, of doing things right, is innately born within us in our soul and it is through life’s experiences whether that goodness grows and matures or whether it becomes embittered.
“At birth our souls are pure and untarnished; through life we can become damaged and are in need of repair.
“Whatever happens to us, our soul is constantly wanting to find that balance so that we can function in a harmonious way.
“Often through extreme hardships or mental abuse our souls become depleted – that very essence within us is diminished. It is almost as if our light, our life, is ebbing away and we find we just can’t carry on.
“That is where ‘God’ comes in as ‘He’ is that life force, that special essence within us and ‘He’ comes to our rescue and our souls become charged up again. We are saved.
“To know that the very essence of us, our souls, can never be destroyed and even at the point of physical death our souls are released from the heavy framework of our physical bodies and are rejoined with ‘God’, never to feel bogged down or even trapped again.
“As we have a responsibility to our physical bodies, so we also have an even greater responsibility to our souls, because if we become overloaded with the problems of life our bodies seem to be able to carry on still, while our souls are not able to function in the same way and the will to live is greatly impaired.
“Know your soul. Start to wake up and realise its existence. By not looking after this vital part of yourself, then your life like candle flame could be snuffed out.
“‘God’ always looks after us and will never let us get too low, but we also must respect that unique essence and begin to nurture ourselves and put ourselves right back on track.
“We will be shown ways by ‘God’s’ guidance and wisdom whereby we can bring about a turn around and begin to learn to love that which we are and to give ourselves that necessary respect.
“Our souls are our own life, much more so than our physical bodies. We must learn to look after it for without our souls we are in fact nothing. We might as well be a robot.
“So lighten up. Start to believe in yourselves again. Know you are strong and begin to see your souls recover. You are that special essence of ‘God’, that purity that is always there, that part which is divine and you need to know that.
“You are special, not only to you but to ‘God’ also.”
