“TIME TO PREPARE …”

“Time to prepare your body for summer,” is the article in our local paper called.

Five steps are given how to go about it. “Hydration, inside and out, is important all year round, but especially over summer,” we are told in Step three. It is all about drinking enough water daily.

Reading about our body brings straight away our soul and our spirit to my mind.

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (King James Version)

In the Bible we are reading about a hungry soul, a weary soul, a thirsty soul, a grieved soul and a loving soul.

Jeremiah 31:25; Psalm 42:2; Job 30:25; Song of Songs 1:7 (King James Version)

On the cross the Lord Jesus Christ died to redeem the soul of man. Hebrews 10:39 says, “But we are not of them who draw back back in perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.” Read also James 1:21 and Psalm 49:8. (King James Version)

I am all for preparing my body for summer and drinking enough water daily, but I think it is more important and always time to prepare my soul for eternity and drink enough water daily from the living water.
