Fullness of Soul

The first step in finding fullness of soul is when a person realizes their sin has separated them from God. Then, when they realize He can forgive their sin and reconcile them to the Father, they have to make an eternal decision which is to admit needing God. The presence of God floods their soul and they receiving salvation, being adopted into the family of God and He miraculously fills their empty soul. Yearning and the restlessness cease. A new life begins.
The older I get, the more I understand how much courage it takes to face the ordinary challenges of life. Every day we make choices to either believe in God and trust Him - even when we don't understand His ways - or second guess God and hide in corners of doubt and fear. The truth is fearful of coming face-to-face with a Holy God. Something inside cries out "Don't face it. Back off. Go with the flow." My husband had a very Godly Grandmother who served as a missionary and later was put in a prison camp for living for God. She is in Heaven now, but I recall one of her favorite statements was "Carol one day your soul will just open up - there is something bigger than you know going on -- give God the glory -- He is there ready to reveal His love, mercy and grace!" She should know; she was 95 when she went home to Glory!!
