The Soul

"Our soul waits for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield." 

Psalm 33:20

Today's Bible Reading: Genesis 2:1-7.

I am a soul—and I have a body! The body is the house in which the soul lives. When God created man, He made him distinctive, different from the other animals or any thing else, that He had created. He breathed into him the breath of life and man became a living soul. In Genesis 2:9 the Bible says, “And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” God clothed him with intelligence, conscience, and a will. He made him like Himself—a companion, a friend of God. At the resurrection, this mortal shall put on immortality, and we that love the Lord, shall be like Him, and be with Him forever.

Prayer: Lord or all creation, and Father all mankind, You are our Creator, and we are wonderfully made. What expectation is mine as I think of being with You forever. I praise You in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
