Weigh your soul…

Daily writing prompt
What’s your favorite candy?

Soul candy 🍬 is my favourite!

I call these God’s rewards!

Only because they are the “sweetest” and they have no ill side effects.

“The Lord detests the use of dishonest scales, but He delights in accurate weights.”  (Proverbs 11:1)

Earth is dishonest.

Even the candy is!

The scales we use, (after eating lots of sugar!) weigh the body but not the soul. 

Did God set the “healthy weight range” on Google?

No.

Man did.

If we focus on the “ranges” set by earth, we miss God entirely. 

We may find we are stressing about a “human measure” on earth, that God Himself, never set for us.

Feel better, after reading this?

Yes! Me too!

How much does your soul weigh? 

This is the better question.

Not, how much does my body weigh?

If we focus on “soul-weight” and then get this right, then we have prioritised the most important discipline. 

God is our discipline!

Not the discipline itself. 

When God is our Program, our Process, our Discipline, our Measure, our Everything, we find that the battles we face, are greatly reduced.

This is because our soul weight, is accurate in God’s eyes! (we struggle less when we obey God the first time)

When we put Him first in everything, our soul feels the perfect weight of heaven! 

That’s the kind of weight I want to carry! 

This is heaven’s gold!

It’s not the toxic weight of earth! 

An accurate weight in your spirit, will lead to the greatest peace and joy! 

This IS God’s weight and “this scale”,  leads to the accurate spiritual measure of self. 

You may be the fattest person alive, (physically) on planet earth, but have the “perfect soul weight” in God’s eyes.

 Only because then and there, you decided the weight of your soul was the most important!

In this AHA moment, God weighed you (the fat man) and saw what earth never did! 

He saw 👀 an honest scale and an accurate soul weight!

Only here, can you start achieving physical disciplines too, according to God’s will for you!

But it always starts with weighing your eternal soul 1st!
