Restoring Your Soul


God wants to restore your soul today. Your soul is your mind, your will and your emotions. You are a three-part being: you are a spirit – that’s the part of you that lives for eternity, you have a soul and you live in a body while you’re here on earth.

Your soul is where you may store hurt, disappointments or brokenness from the past. When God restores your soul, He brings His healing power to those broken places and makes you whole again. And when God restores you He makes you better off than you were before. He makes you stronger, more alive, and more loving.

The bible says, ““The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul...” I love the picture painted in this verse. Notice that He leads us beside quiet waters. He makes us lie down in green pastures. This is a picture of rest.

When we are resting in Him, He is able to do a work in our lives. He is able to bring that restoration. Don’t let the busyness of life keep you going so fast that you don’t stop and rest. Take time to be still before the Lord and let Him restore your soul.
